Thank you to Nicole King for this complimentary advanced copy. This review is being left voluntarily and all opinions expressed are my own.

Myla, a true crime podcaster, returns home after being away for many years for her mum's funeral. At the same time, news has broken that the remains of a teenage girl have been found on the boundary of her mother's farm.

Myla finds herself on the other side of a true crime for a change as she battles to uncover the truth, whilst also questionong the things she believed to be true.

This story leans heavily on the psychological and explores Myla's inner thoughts as she tries to uncover the truth. However it came accross as quite repetitive, so at times it was a little difficult to stay invested.

The pacing is more on the slow burn side with key information being delivered early, but the pace never really picks up.

To me this didn't feel like a traditional thriller, more of a psychological drama.

This was a solid debut and I look forward to seeing what Nicole has to offer in the future.
