This was one of my most anticipated reads of the year so I was really excited to go into this. We are following Jane who after the loss of her dad gets into online true crime solving. She meets a group of amateur sleuths and they help to solve a murder case of college students at Idaho State University. 

Although I liked the story I found it incredibly predictable. I figured out the entire murder by around the 50% mark, I thought it was pretty obvious. I was really hoping I was wrong and there would be a huge twist at the end, but sadly that was not the case. I’m not sure how I felt that this entire story was based on the Idaho college murder case from 2022.  That’s a case I have been following and am pretty familiar with so it was just odd reading a story based on that. She portrayed the victims in not the best light and I was a little uncomfortable with that. 

I really enjoyed the beginning of the book and watching the team solve the first murder. I think when it got to the Idaho murders it lost me a little bit. This was a long book and I’m not sure it needed to be that long, some of the chapters seemed unnecessary. The chapters were very short which made it a quick read so I enjoyed that. I just also had a hard time with the chapters with her dad, I just was sort of trying to find a reason for mentioning him so much. I was almost thinking that maybe the twist was that he killed the girls! That would have been wild.

If you are a true crime fan and a fan of Ashley Winstead then I would recommend picking up this book on March 25th.
