This book is so poignant yet powerful, a few twists I didn't seem coming and I was on the edge of my seat at the end. It was very thought provoking as well beautifully written. 
While the story felt slow at time, it was necessary to fully understand the characters, each bringing their unique depth and hand life gave them for an immersive true-crime story. 
I felt this had some Shawshanke Redemption vibes which made it enjoyable.
