I could NOT put this book down. I loved the seamless storytelling of different perspectives on every chapter, and how each character's point of view intertwined with the others as the story went on. Mysterious setting with excellent plot twists; the use of the characters' past blending in with the present was very well done. I savoured the smooth reading without overanalysing the 'whodunnit' aspect, and was very excited and practically mindblowned upon reaching the climax of the book. Absolutely enjoyed myself with this one!
