Woah.. I mean woah.
I did not see that coming!
Yes! Thank you for writing a mystery novel that actually had mystery in it's story.
I LOVED this book. The layout, the characters, the imagery, PERFECT. Definitely kept me guessing and on the edge of my seat. If you're looking for a quality "who done it", I highly recommend you pick this up.
