Two can keep a secret
This was enjoyable.
I don't have a penchant for crime novels, but I did like this one. So much that it only took me two days to finish it.
The story is about a twin brother and sister who are forced to go live with their grandmother while their mother is being treated in an addiction clinic.
Their mothers twin was murdered in the town where their grandmother lives and they both become fascinated with the crime and try to unravel the mystery.
The story is told from a few perspectives, which makes it easy to read without any slow pacing to make you lose interest in the story.
The ending was a bit rushed, I must add, but the path to get there was well constructed.
And endings are the worst for writers.
