Book Review – What Happened to the Boy?

So this one was a quick-paced crime novel with an element of mystery. From the blurb and the title, I was honestly expecting more of a thriller centered around discovering the Nagy’s son’s fate, but it actually took a different path from the first chapter.

This book really encompasses two intertwining stories unfolding in parallel – one of the events leading up to the fire and one of the events that unfold after as the characters involved piece together the story from different angles. It’s interesting because we almost get a spiral effect as we drill down from a big picture of the events to a more personal level with the myriad of characters involved. The writing and story were both easy to follow and held my attention, and I was definitely invested in the characters throughout.

Recommended for those looking for a broad-scoped crime novel with likable characters and a satisfying conclusion. Thanks to the author for the advance copy! What Happened to the Boy? is out today (🎉 And yes, I’m also really proud that I posted this review on time. 🎉) and you can grab it here!
