So, this was a good mystery, but it was absolutely not what i was expecting from the description. I also found it borderline boring in places, since the buildup is very long. I think the story could have been shortened a fair bit. I was also thrown off by Charlieâs parents assuming it was Titus, since that has not been set up at all and I was absolutely not convinced that it was him, which kind of diminished the mystery a little for me, considering there was only one other suspect. Still, I was interested in how this would end. Solid three star read.
