Critic Reviews

‘A taut, compulsively readable, elegantly plotted thriller', Guardian

'Prepare to be murdered by this book. Dark, dangerous and intricately plotted – my heart literally pounded. I haven't been this addicted to anything since Serial. Holly Jackson is the next big thing, I promise.', Laura Steven, author of bestselling Infinite Fates

'Twisty, compulsive and so, so, clever', Savannah Brown, author of The Truth About Keeping Secrets

'This book was a delight from start to finish. I laughed. I cried. And I very much enjoyed attempting to solve the case with Pip (who I now want to be my best friend). I didn't guess the twist, and I don't think many people will. Holly Jackson has absolutely killed it with her debut!', Aisha Bushby, author of A Pocketful of Stars and contributor to the award-winning A Change is Gonna Come

'That ending! Pure genius', Yasmin Rahman, author of All the Things We Never Said

'In a League of its Own', Lucy Powrie, author of The Paper & Hearts Society

'A Twisty, compelling UK YA debut', Fiona Noble, The Bookseller

Such a good story! Kept me guessing until the end. The characters are all believable and the narrator is very good. I’ve listened to lots of audiobooks and this narrator is one of the best.

Brilliant!

I usually get scared that I’ll cringe the whole time when I listen to a YA. But this was highly entertaining and kept me on my toes with realistic characters. Give it a go.
Narrator is a bit slow so I listened on 1.25 and it seemed better paced then.

Give it a go !

I didn't realise this was a YA until I started reading it. That's OK because it turns out that it was not a silly YA but a well thought out, well written, and gripping murder mystery. (Let me point out that I've read some amazing YA books but I've also read some tedious, eye rolling, cringe YA.)

There are plenty of suspects in this case for Pip and Ravi to sort through. Just when you think you know, you don't. Nutting out all of the goings-on (and there was a lot going on in these teenagers lives) was interesting and keeps you guessing the whole time.

I love Pip's maturity and the relationship she has with her parents. Just beautiful. Similarly, her budding friendship with Ravi is refreshingly professional with a hint of will they get together. There's no love sick teenage angst blurring the lines and messing with the mission to solve the cold case.

I highly recommend this book and will seek out the other titles in this series.

A well thought out murder mystery
