Charlie Crabtree committed a murder so shocking it attracted insane amounts of attention and was published all over the internet.
25 years later Paul Adams remembers the case clearly, both Charlie and the Victim were his friends. Now as he is for Ed to return home to see after his mother who has dementia, he becomes entangled in a series of murders performed by more than one copy-cat.

This story was not what I’d usually pick up, #bookstagrammademedoit . It was definitely not up my alley but it was intriguing. I was very confused at first but when I figured out what was going on it was really good.

The audiobook has 2 narrators as the story is told from two perspective. The narrator for Paul has a soothing voice and would occasionally put me to sleep. It’s not a bad thing I think it really suits the character. The narrator for Amanda shows sentiments and force i definitely see it as belonging to a detective. The story /audiobook has flows pretty naturally however (and this was completely on me) I was very confused because I hadn’t noticed on the time changes (before/now).

Overall I like it a lot. It was a little creepy at times but the premise behind the story was really interesting.
I got the audiobook from the publisher via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. these opinions are my own and should not influence your opinions of the book.
