I read 3 books by Dreda Say Mitchell and this was my favorite. She knows how to build suspense and gaslight you (in a good way). I don't think book was creepy, but very intriguing. Definitely a page turner.
This book had so many reveals I almost couldn't keep up. I loved it. Rachel definitely has some issues, internal and external. I commend her for trying to work out her issues herself, but I would have asked for help before it got that bad. She was incredibly brave for sticking to solving the mystery, and a bit nuts how she went about it. It definitely is not easy realizing your world is not what it seems. Her partner in crime, Keats, was a pleasure. I enjoyed watching their friendship "blossom", if that is even the right word. I would definitely read a book with Keats as the title character. Very unique and oddball. Book is well written and enjoyable.
