  1. Didn't find the characterization to be the best, especially when wanting smart characters to be oblivious to obvious things
  2. Didn't fancy the last stretch.
    I loved the reveal, where we are made to believe it's Michael then Dean then the killer is finally revealed. But then Locke just stands and tells us everything. Interesting backstory but an anti climatic reveal.
  3. Didn't need the love triangle at all, like, not even in the slightest. Although I did find Michael and Cassie's last convo cute.
  4. Overall nice story, not too bogged down or unnecessarily convoluted.
