I have soft spots for both Nate and Cooper! I couldn't guess the culprit until the end.

I have to say, it was an amazing experience to spend more time with the characters I truly loved. With the Rojas sisters' research skills and Bronwyn's logical assumptions, Cooper, Nate, Kris, and Luis' muscle power, Addy and Phoebe's determination to release the past that holds them back, they make the perfect team to reveal the new mystery threatening their town. Could Jack be involved in this kidnapping? Is he planning to make them pay for putting him behind bars? Then, one of the Bayview Crew is kidnapped during Nate's house party. On top of that, Jack gets an early release from prison and starts lurking around the Bayview area with his probation officer, giving Addy extra nightmares from their dark past.

This time, the main mystery starts with a billboard hack displaying a bad joke and an eerie message that warns something earth-shattering is about to come out. Nate, whom I would save from death if I had to choose two characters, Addy, who nearly got killed by her ex Jack and is now reviewing her sexual orientation while bonding with her sister who is expecting, and surprise surprise, we have narrations from Jack and Simon to reveal events from six years ago that may help us understand many unanswered questions from the entire series and look at the characters from different perspectives. The main narrators are Phoebe from the second book, whose sister left the country after her connection with their father's killer's death was revealed, and Phoebe also discovered the ugly truth about her little brother's involvement in the murder. The contribution of the villains is important in answering so many questions about the past and connecting them with the wrapping up of the new mystery.Īt first, I had some hesitations about how the author would equally insert each character into the story, but I take back my words because she managed to do it impeccably. Fortunately, Simon is not returning as a ghost to haunt the Bayview Four, but we do get to read his narration from six years ago. Even the villains from the first book are back, with their own narrations.

It masterfully brings together characters of two previous books as founders of the murder club with the original Bayview Four Members. The Bayview Crew is back and better than ever! It couldn't be truer that the third time's a charm, as this book is by far the best novel in the series.
