Definitely kept me engaged, although a bit longer than I often prefer. A bit hard to follow in places in the audiobook, which is common for mysteries. Certainly inventive and creative.

Worth checking content warnings on this one if you’re sensitive. There are multiple descriptions of murder from the perspective of the victim(s) which were pretty brutal. Also worth noting that the narrator’s response to the experience of being fat is pretty over the top.
