My theory was that Andie Bell was never murdered to begin with, but she made people believe that she was, and set Sal Singh up to look guilty for it, because she wanted to punish her dad, Jason Bell, for emotionally abusing her, Becca Bell, and Dawn Bell at home for the most of her life, and thought that Sal was the easiest person to put the blame on, since they were arguing around the time of her disappearance.

After Pip talked to Naomi, I thought it was her and her dad was defending/covering for her up until it came out that her dad was somewhat guilty.
I thought it was Ravi

At first I thought Naomi did it and her dad was covering for her. After that I thought that Andy was still alive and she was never murdered at all.
I spent probably half of the book thinking Andie had faked her death and framed Sal, to punish her dad for the emotional abuse and maybe something had happened when she drug dealing that she couldn't escape from without running away. However, I had always had a hunch that if she was killed by someone, it was a member of her family. To me, Becca seemed more and more suspicious as the story went on.
I thought that the drug dealer that dealt to Andie and Max killed her when i first was introduced to him. Then I thought that she was never dead and then i thought maybe Becca??? But then i was just like whaaaaaaa. I loved this book!!!
I thought that it was Daniel and Nat da Silva, because Daniel probably searched the house right after Andie went missing, and Andie could've 'ruined him' He was also always very uptight about the whole Andie topic, but his sister Nat was an equally big suspect as she had a motive to kill Andie as she embarrassed her significantly and had a track record with violence as she had been in prison for Actual bodily harm and had history with putting notes in lockers. Also, that phase was so well done and the timing of it was fantastic as it seemed just as Nat left Pip discovered the note in her locker, but as people who've read the book know, this was not the case.
After reading the first page I actually thought it was Becca Bell because she was the last person to have seen Andie and I believed it more and more as I read through the book as there were small hints every now and then. I think the best age rating would be 13+ but if you think you're mature enough, 10+ as I read it when I was 11.
Am i the only one that thought it was Ravi? I dont know its probably because they always say its the person you least expect, and Ravi seemed very eager but that was my conclusion. I also had suspicions for Daniel da silva. But this book was literally the most amazing book ive read before , does anyone have any recommandations of more books like this for me? Thank you

I went a lot of different ways when reading it. Definitely heavily leaned towards her not being dead, for sure. But Naomi was a big suspect for me and then eventually Mr. Ward.
i was very sus abt daniel de silver becuz he was a police and he was connected to everything i also kinda thought it would be naomi but never once suspeted becka so the ending was quite unexpected
Mariella wrote: "I thought it was Ravi"wow- okay thats wierd ..
(okay maybe i thought that to at some point)

Yep, i thut andie bell wasnt really dead...especially when that old lady recalled seeing her a week ago or so and I thut she wasnt crazy! The twist at the end was way unpredictable and i LOVED it
I suspected a Daniel x Max killer team, but woah that ending got me good. Just a little surprised that Pippa didn't push charges against Becca for drugging and attacking her. I felt it was a little weird that she had little compassion for Mr Ward and so much for Becca. Yes, he was the adult, she wasn't, but now Becca is an adult, too...
I thought nat/daniel da silva and if not max hastings

I thought that Andie was gonna be found alive at the end and that sal was innocent. I'm honestly a bit surprised she was actually murdered especially by her sister. Also, the storyline with Mr. Ward being involved was good, I also thought that she was gonna be there but it was just a random girl.
Kait wrote: "I thought that Andie was gonna be found alive at the end and that sal was innocent. I'm honestly a bit surprised she was actually murdered especially by her sister. Also, the storyline with Mr. War..."ikr even me
I thought the dad did it, Andie her dad for a period of time, but after I suspected Mr. Ward.I did not suspect what would really happen so that was cool because, I have a really strong intuition feeling which ends in already knowing what will happen.

did you read as good as dead?
In the beginning, I thought that Andie was never murdered. I even suspected that Ravi and Andie planned it together. But after a point of time, I dismissed Ravi as suspect because it seemed he genuinely wanted to find the murderer.

For the longest time, I thought it was going to be Mr. Bell, because when Pip was questioning Becca and asked about the relationship between Andie and their father, she acted weird.

SPOILERhonestly, as soon as we were introduced to the teacher i KNEW it was him.
I was hoping she was alive but was involved with the older guy Henry Hill at the Inn, and that was the HH in her planner and who she was posing for in her photo; that the granny was speaking true and wasn't sick.
For a while I didn't think Andie was dead- I thought she staged her death and actually killed Sal because he found out. Then for a while I thought that maybe her dad and mom had something to do with it.
The "HH" in her diary kinda sticked with me when the Ivy Hotel's current admin has HH (Henry Hill or something???) as initials as well. I though Pip just unintentionally missed it because of her Howie fixation, and that Ivy's HH is the secret older guy who eventually k-worded Andie. I also primarily thought that she's alive and is the one who threats Pip to stop her project khjksdhjkasd. But within the murder trail of PipRavi, my suspicion points to the Dad x Daniel da Silva.
I knew Mr. Ward was guilty the moment they were all hanging out at the house and he said something about tutoring. Something was fishy. It made sense to be him. I did not expect the Becca plot twist though. That was great.
I was so suspicious of how quickly Pip crossed Mr. Ward off of her suspect list but I really had no guesses as to motive. I too was also briefly a member of the "Andie faked her death" club
I was listening to it as I put dishes away and the second she started interviewing Mr. Ward for the first time I looked at my boyfriend and said, "ah, the teacher did it," and he said, "huh" because he had no clue what I was talking about. I don't know how I knew but I did. Something about his interview gave it away for me.
I thought Ravi was the killer. My theory was that he found out Andie wasn’t dead (maybe saw her walking with the head injury ) after his brother already unalived himself and in rage killed her. My theory was that he was going on this mission to clear Sal’s name because he was sure his brother didn’t kill Andie. Also as soon as Pip found out that Sal was indeed innocent he kept telling her not to worry about finding the actual killer as that was not the point of the project. Sounds like something a killer would have said 🤷🏾♀️
At first I thought I Andie was still alive and that she had killed Sal. But when Ravi said that Naomie was 100% in love with Sal, I thought, hmm, it’s interesting you can do a lot of things out of love/jealousy, and at the beginning of the story she was so weird but by no means I suspect Elliot or Becca ever. Elliot was so nice he answered all of Pippa’s questions without objection, Becca was weird but that’s normal, right? Pip was asking her about her sister’s murder.

I suspected that it was Ravi, but I ended up being wrong, but the author should srsly put Ravi as one of the killers
(im at the end of the first book, not done BUUUT) I think that Jason Bell killed his daughter and then went full psychopath and that he hid her body in that abandoned barn Becca was writing an article about. THEN I think that he got Daniel in on it, who killed Sal, planted the evidence and stole the burner phone.Why? no idea lmao this is already too complicated
I always suspected the 'older affair' and at the same time suspected Naomi a lot. I thought she either was the murderer or somehow involved and knew everything abt it and tried to cover i up
Def thought it was a cover up, she didn’t actually die. She just wanted Sal to get upset and realize how much he loved her so she could have him when she decided to come back, I really thought she was still alive because her body hadn’t been found.

really, i thought that um... ok y'all gonna hate me for this and believe me i have a fat crush on ravi, but in the very beggining when he was still being grumpy af, i um, thought ravi did it. Ok, Ok! I get it you hate me! Same here! but then later i thought that andie killed herself after killing sal a few days after she kid out somewhere.
