•What did I think of this book? (Mult. Pov)
Holy smokes...ok, let me start adult content. This book is well written, strong main character. It asks the question, "How far would you go to catch the killer of a loved one?" Would you be able to dig up old wounds? When every adult in Sadie's life failed her she takes matters into her own hands, solving her sisters murder.. going off of meager clues to find him, her past haunts her, it drives her to see it through. A podcaster gets a call to follow her clues when local law enforcement has failed. This was written in podcast format and first person. I liked the uniqueness. Recommend the audiobook.
