The attention-grabbing title and cover intensified my anticipation. The murder mystery aspect featuring a snarky, prickly heroine and a shy, awkward hero, along with a web of secrets, compelled me further. The spooky yet beautiful cover perfectly matches the woodsy theme. As a fan of small-town mysteries with supernatural elements, I'm thrilled by the promising mix of mysteries, complex histories, and teenage drama. Can't wait to devour the entire book!
