I really enjoyed this book. I really enjoyed the guessing game, I had my suspicions with two characters, so for me,  it wasn't that much of a surprise when it was revealed who did, in fact, do it. 

I think what I enjoyed the most with this book was the unpredictability with the characters, and you feel the tension. 

This was my first read of 2024, chosen by my 3 year daughter, and what a fab choice to start this year's reading with.
