This is my first time reading Karen Ann Hopkin, and it was an interesting experience. For myself sometimes when an author decides to split the book into chapters from different characters perspectives I occasionally get muddled however with this there's not only different characters perspectives but jumping back and forth from the murder victims perspective also, which added to the mix once I became clearer on what characters view we were on it helped to some extent.
If I had paid more attention at the start of this I do believe I should have known who the killer was, however with the way I process information I did manage to overlook it completely .
I had basically the whole day to read so you can read it in one sitting if you're so inclined, interesting characters, a potential love interest for the main character and a clash of cross cultural societies with a lot of long kept secrets.
