Basic plot: The friend of MC has been receiving threatening letters ever since he got engaged. MC hires a private detective who happens to be someone he knew briefly in middle school. During the investigation, dark secrets come out.

I have mixed feelings about this book. I really enjoyed the last scene. I had reservations about the 'final reveal' (removed until spoilers aren't broken). I felt some conversations and internal monologues went on far too long and over explained. So...it was ok. I neither loved nor hated it.

Difficulty wise this would probably be a good entry level book for someone who wants something not slice of life. The grammar and the vocab is mostly pretty basic, but there are some criminal/legal terms which don't come up in most every day conversations.
