A thrilling finale to the series, I was not expecting what happened at the end of part 1! After enjoying the other books in the series, but being able to guess who the killer was, I felt a similar pang of mild disappointment when I figured it out again this time. The huge twist and incredibly tense part 2 of the book had me listening ‘on the edge of my seat’ - the tension was palpable thanks to such great writing.
