Thank you NetGalley and Macmillan Audio for the ARC!

This was a great book - I loved the format, which worked exceptionally well as an audiobook. There were regular characters, and we heard most of the story through them, but there were also short chapters where a mystery narrator spoke directly to us, the listeners. We didn't find out who that narrator was until the very end, and it was fun to guess which person it would be.

The true narrator for the audiobook, Michelle H. Lee, did an excellent job of alternating between the various languages used in the novel (English, Korean, French, etc.).

I'd recommend this book for anyone who enjoys mystery, drama, and romance! 4.5 stars from me.
