Wow, this is one of the best thrillers I’ve read in a long time.

As an avid thriller reader, I didn’t think I’d be able to come across a book that was really unique. However, this is the most original thriller I have ever read. I loved the use of multi-media to help bring the case and story t ...more

Just finished this goddamn American version of this book only to find out the UK version is not only different but better than the American version? NO ONE COULD HAVE TOLD ME. I WAS SO CONFUSED WHEN THIS WAS SET IN CONNECTICUT BUT ALL THE PEOPLE I HEARD TALKING ABOUT IT WERE SAYING IT WAS SET IN THE UK, LIKE WHAT THE HELL?!?! AND THE UK VERSIONS LONGER AND HAS MORE DETAILS?!??! WHAT. THE. HELL. IM NOT EVEN AMERCIAN 😫

The suspense throughout the book was pretty fantastic but the ending fell flat. Not sure if I’ll continue this series

This book reminded me how good murder mysteries are. The last few I had read have been disappointing and so I’ve kind of avoided the genre for a bit, but after reading AGGGTM I am ready to become obsessed!

I loved the way Pip followed every lead and braze ...more
