Mystery upon mystery submitted by steveiew on June 14, 2019, 10:18am I loved how unexpected many things were in this book! The original murder mystery story weaves in and out of the story of the current death at Ellingham. Both mysteries get deeper and more complex throughout this book.

Okay submitted by zmclaugh on June 27, 2019, 10:20pm I like the characters and think the mystery is probably pretty good, but the plotting is very off. There is no excuse for cliffhanger endings that tie nothing up at all.

Great Continuation submitted by delaneyl on July 17, 2019, 1:45pm I appreciated how this book managed the suspense of the mysteries set up in the first book and balanced old and new questions without leaving too much unresolved. I found it more compelling than the first book, so if you liked Truly Devious I would definitely recommend this book. This book really creates a sense of how deep into this mystery Stevie is as well as continuing to develop her social relationships. Really enjoyed and I can't wait for the next book!

Thrilling Murder submitted by me11yagn on August 26, 2019, 2:01pm The students at Ellingham Academy solve a mystery of a murder. The book was very suspenseful, filled with many surprising mysteries. I would definitely recommend to fans of mysteries and thrillers.
