After the unexpected passing of her father a young college student is trying to distract herself and learn the ebbs and flows of grief. While dealing with her sudden life change she begins playing an amateur sleuth online and ends up teaming up with some other true crime amateur sleuths who feel just as lost as she does in her new world. The group decides to meet up in real life and team up together to solve a crime when college students in Idaho keep getting murdered. These true crime buffs put their heads together and track down what the police and FBI seem to constantly be missing. 

This book was fast paced and my first by this author. I am looking forward to reading more of her work. I enjoyed the true crime aspect as I find true crime interesting as well as the main character's process of grief and her outlook on life and loss. This book releases in March 2025 and I definitely recommend it being added to your TBR if you are a crime fiction and or true crime fan.

Many thanks to NetGalley and Sourcebooks for the gifted copy of Ashley Winstead's latest thriller.
