Another great Mystery fiction by Holly Jackson. Lots of twists and turns and second guessing, missed placed loyalties and, a little far fetched at times but didn't ruin the experience. I loved the relationship between Bel and Ash, their humour and honesty. I would have like to see more depth to Carter's character and her relationship with Sherry, there were hints but perhaps it was on purpose to keep people guessing.
It is a brilliant book with a great plot and an unseen twist at the end. I also loved how all the different characters have very strong opinions
