Number three: the fast pace. By chapter two we already had a crime scene, murder victim, police investigation and serial killer. And, without exception each chapter delivered another clue/piece of evidence building intrigue relentlessly throughout. Every single word, sentence, paragraph was integral to the story; there were absolutely no frills or filler.
Number four: the investigation. With the storyline alternating between the characters, it also meant it alternated between the crime and the investigation. I loved the fascinating insight to police work - thought processes, attention to detail, dead ends, game -changers, mistakes, etc.
This book was so easy to read too. Each chapter was only a couple of pages which was another reason it was so compelling because it was all too easy to think just another chapter and suddenly three hours later you're still reading.
Finally, a big thank you to Bookbag for introducing me to another new author, and if gripping psychological thrillers are your thing, then other books I would also recommend are [[Can You Keep a Secret? by Karen Perry]] and [[The Death of Mrs Westaway by Ruth Ware]].
