What a book. A masterful blend of time travel, body hopping, and murder that kept me guessing until the end. I wish I could experience this for the first time all over again.
Initially took me a minute to get into it but you spend the book learning, growing, and solving the mystery of Blackheath with Aiden, and that's what makes this so compelling. There have been evenings I stayed up until 2am because I needed to know what happened next and days where I couldn't wait to get back to it. Somehow a book that is so familiar in style and yet truly original. Can't wait to read more of Stuart Turton's works.
