This was fine. I didn’t love knowing part of what happened to Charlie up front through Liz’s perspective because it takes some of the steam out of the mystery for me, and where the plot goes is pretty predictable already. The second half of the story also gets a little slow and repetitive. I could only hear about Liz’s self loathing and Owen’s narcissism for so long, but every chapter they were in cycled through the same thought patterns. It definitely could have been shortened, which would have helped keep the pace up and made it more thrillery.
