Ratings and reviews

I had a great experience reading this book I was enchanted by it , I have always been interested in mystery / thriller books or movies honestly ,so this book was the best pick for me , it has a great plot , each character has its own personality , honestly I thought that Mr Ward having a hand in this was the plot twist so I kind of felt down a bit bcuz I was just saying before , I need it to be someone irrelevant and mind blowing so I just said for fun " It could be Mr Ward lol " but the PLOT TWIST was nice actually , the thing that had me concerned through the while thing was Sal , nothing other than that . I had a question in mind which was " Which could be worse Sal being murdered or him doing suicide " and If he actually was the one that had murdered Andie or kidnapped her. I genuinely felt terrible after knowing what happened , I started crying so bad . And the ending was wholesome and heartwarming and I'd say the chemistry between Ravi and Pip was sweet and genuine , I loved how you could possibly feel it's evolution and growth . I enjoyed reading this book so much and I'd definitely recommend it 😔🤌🏻

It was one of the best Murder, Psychological Thriller I have ever read. The story revolves around Pippa Fitz Amobi who believes the accused of a murder that happened in her very own town, is nothing but innocent. She chooses this topic as her Final Year Project in high school and she discovers many hidden truths when she investigates this case. This book also gets Super Duper Emotional at times and shocking enough to make you gasp and cry out loud. I suggest not viewing any book reviews of this book as it can be spoiled for you. One of the best Books ever! Please Read this if you are a fan of Murder Thrillers. Thank you, ~A
