<spoilers> I expected a lot more from this book as it did have a lot of potential but it just all seemed a bit rushed including the ending. The twist of Grace being the murderer was one that I was surprised at but was easy to guess and an array of all the different deaths too and the reasons why. I wanted so much more from the missing person case and how all the men were connected to each other but in the end with the fishing boat and the storm it all seemed a bit too far fetched. Especially with Phil and how she revealed some of the truth of her murderous ways but then never got her corrupance as it seemed she was going to end it all. The whole replica models of the houses she had killed was very creepy and from the alone I'm suspired no one clocked on that she was a murderer. In summary  this whole book just made me feel a bit uneasy.
