Review of 'Trust No One' on 'Goodreads'
3 stars
Not great, not the worst.
For a murder mystery there was little mystery. Just a convoluted web of people involved with the cops being given crucial information at just the right time by someone who volunteered it, not because they actually uncovered anything themselves.
Personally, I think this would have been better done from Sela's perspective as she planned and executed her revenge. The cops were just a poorly developed lens through which to view the story.
