Review:  Picked this up on a whim in the library during a pretty massive book slump, and super stoked to say that it had me hooked from the absolute beginning and can definitely be credited with moving me back to the land of the bookish!

There's enough here to have your gears turning from the very beginning, and plenty of twists throughout. Some are pretty obvious (hello red herrings) and others were way more surprising - but I liked that we got a little bit of both!

I've looked into Nicci French's series (Frieda Klein #1) and I don't necessarily think that one is going to be for me - although if you liked Has Anyone Seen Charlotte Salter? at all, I would definitely recommend giving it a look - people seem to be somewhat lukewarm on this one but LOVE her Frieda series.
