5.0 out of 5 stars Really enjoyed this book!
Reviewed in the United States on November 18, 2021
Wow! I really enjoyed this book. I had as much trouble keeping all the events and evidence straight as the main character, Nyree, did. In a good way. It made the ending way more interesting and not predictable. And the New Zealand setting made it even more fascinating.
I hope this is going to be a series. I really liked her Elizabeth McClain
