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

This is the best book I have read in a long time.
I am an older person so it is more than just a teenage book, it is an excellent murder mystery.

This book came highly recommended to me. I was a little worried it wouldn't live up to the hype, but I can confirm it 100% lives up to the hype and does not disappoint. I didn't see the ending coming from a mile off like some of the books I've listened to this year. I will definitely be reading the other books from this series.

The best story I've listened to this year!

To review the story - I really liked it. It's a good story with interesting twists, though potentially a bit predictable.
To review this narration - The main narrator is fine, but I could live without the put on voices. It's quite over acted. If some of the characters were in it any more than they were, it would have made it impossible to listen to, but the sample is a good reflection of the voice on the majority of the book.

Good story, put on voices are annoying

Very well written, well performed Story of murder and teen angst. The main protagonist is slightly precocious but still endearing. A story of many good people that do bad things and bad people that are just bad.
Not just for “young adults” either. Recommend to older readers too

Excellent Murder Mystery
