This book has great pacing and a solid foundation to allow a good medium-burn. Wasn’t a “can’t put down” but absolutely not a book to DNF. I loved the format of a docuseries outline and how we heard from people in episode intros before we, as readers, ever got more context into their roles in the story. I wouldn’t say the twist at the end was necessarily predictable because it doesn’t “reveal” anything substantial. It does end on a great note to make you wonder what was real. Was any of it true? A few minor unanswered points but I believe that’s what makes a great mystery….sometimes they are not tied up with neat little bows and they keep you wondering. I’ll be on the lookout for more by this author.
