Perfect for you if...
- You love detective fiction that treats its protagonist as flawed and human, not a superhero with convenient skills.
- You're drawn to mysteries with multiple suspects where the wealthy and glamorous have the most to hide.
- You appreciate writing that balances procedural detail with sharp social observation and character development.
Maybe not for you if...
- You prefer fast-paced thrillers over methodical investigation; this novel takes time to develop its case and characters.
- You want to avoid books that explore darker aspects of fame, addiction, and exploitation in the modelling industry.
- You're looking for a standalone mystery; this is the first in an ongoing series with long-term character arcs.
