Such a good book! I’ve loved all of Karen McManus’ books and this is no different.  At first I struggled to get into it due to how at first the changing viewpoints was somewhat confusing but once you get used to it it definitely adds to the plot. So many twists and turns from the beginning and it gives a bit of the mystery away as the book progresses so you’re hooked but the ending is still a huge plot twist. Perfect summer read due to its beachy setting and McManus manages to make a slightly creepy fascinating mystery without it being horrible or too graphic to read.
