Rezension von Mia RennersGutes Jugendbuch, angenehm geschrieben und nicht unbedingt vorhersehbar.
Rezension von MichelleSpannender Jugendthriller rund um Juwelenraub, Geheimnisse und Morde. Schreibstil mochte ich gerne. Es hat sich an einigen Stellen etwas gezogen für mich. Alles in allem konnte mich das Buch jedoch gut unterhalten.

Rezension von Mrs MoriartyEher 3,5 Sterne Die Grundidee gefiel mir von allen bisherigen Romanen der Autorin mit am besten. Schade das McManus dann doch so wenig daraus gemacht hat. Ich denke sie hätte sich für Liam oder Kat entscheiden sollen, dann hätte sie derren Potential besser ausgeschöpft. Der Plot ist teilweise sehr verwickelt, aber ihm fehlt Tiefe um einen richtigen Überraschungen zu erzielen. Und ich hätte mir auch gewünscht, das die Autorin den Mut gehabt hätte , Figuren zu erzählen denen nicht zu trauen ist. Stattdessen geht es um zwei Teenager derren Eltern auf ganzer Linie als solche versagt haben. Aufgrund des Klappentextes hatte ich anderes erwartet und hätte genau das auch gerne gelesen. Ich mochte Kat und Liam keine Frage, aber insgesamt kam Karen McManus leider nicht aus ihrer Kompfortzone. Ich fände super, wenn sie sich trauen würde etwas Neues auszuprobieren.
Rezension von Eva SpringethAs usual, Miss Karen Mc. Manus was KILLING it (figuratively) ! From the first to the last page the story kept me hooked and it never ever got boring. One aspect I love so much are these power-groups she's creating. As they stick together throughout the whole book, can rely on each other and end up solving the mystery. It always gives me such a good and comforting vibe. Last but not least the found-family situation between Luke and Kat wormed my heart
