mcmanus’ propensity towards mysteries/thrillers is shown in this book. as a sequel to ‘one of us is lying’, i think it’s a bit disappointing. the much-beloved characters of the first book hardly appear, and their cameos are just...insubstantial. the mystery felt old and tired, and the characters were dull or irritating.
