I wasn’t sold on the opening premise, of a group of former housemates willingly coming back under one roof and being filmed for a real crime podcast, not with almost all of them having successfully kept secrets for so long. The amount of things each confessed to on camera strained credulity. I also had the killer pegged from the start (and I’m usually slow on the whodunnit uptake).
The main thing that kept this in okay territory for me, however, was the one note tone of the book. I didn’t find any of the suspects likeable, or morbidly fascinating, or so bad that I rooted for them to fail; they were just disappointing personalities. Not sure I will ever re-listen.
