I don’t like true (violent) crime, but I loved this! I enjoyed the framing story of the younger writer working with a more experienced colleague. I was a bit shocked at the ending but still enjoyed it. Some people like to have an ending they can’t predict!

What a letdown; I thought I would like this novel, especially as the execution as a faux true crime book was well done, but the ending is incredibly sloppy and ultimately relies on bigoted tropes about
gay and trans people.
