this book felt kinda heavy and I felt like i was reading a Netflix movie at some point haha. Throughout the book, I thought i knew who the killer was but always second guessing as I thought it would have been too simple a plot to have the killer revealed early on. So it was a constant guessing game. It’s interesting to read different POVs - the killer’s, eddie’s and Kate’s (Eddie and Kate are both defense lawyers for the 2 sisters). It was also quite emotional reading eddie’s feelings dealing with grief and i felt quite angry and emotional as more people got killed…
there were a few law jargons used here and there which I couldn’t understand but it’s a small issue bc the court hearings and dialogues were all compelling to read 
Not perfect bc towards the end it was pretty obvious who the killer was since it was either one or the other 
would be interesting to read the book again now that I know who is the killer
