He even did a little dance on the spot whilst waving his coloured markers in the air. \u201cThey\u2019re our killers. They left evidence pointing to themselves in order to make us think that someone was trying to frame them.\u201d Shandy tried to make sense of this. \u201cBut Becky and Robert hate each other since Robert cheated on her with a craftstagrammer.\u201d \u201cCakestagrammer,\u201d I corrected. \u201cBut just because they\u2019re making a public display of hostility, that doesn\u2019t mean it\u2019s real.\u201d My brain was full of possibilities.<\/p>\n<p>I hadn\u2019t interviewed Becky as a suspect, but perhaps I should have. \u201cRobert runs a true-crime podcast too. I wouldn\u2019t put it past them that this whole thing is a way to create new content for their followers.\u201d The two-dimensional, illuminated rendering of Will Gibbons was having none of it. \u201cSo they became murderers to have something to talk about online? That\u2019s ridiculous. If they were going to plot a murder just like they plot their Instagram stories, they\u2019d surely come up with an elaborate narrative to link everything together.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>My ex-colleague was like a snappy dog when he got worked up about something. He was practically snarling by the end of this comment. His scepticism served to stop my father\u2019s dancing and left an uneasy atmosphere in its wake. \u201cSo\u2026 we\u2019re no closer to the truth than we were before,\u201d I said in the hope that someone would contradict me. \u201cThat may be true, dear.\u201d Mother wore a pouty frown.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut we\u2019re working together now. It won\u2019t be long before we identify the killer.\u201d I felt bad that we\u2019d left Ramesh out of our meeting. This would have been the perfect moment for him to say something completely inane. He\u2019d probably have put forward the idea that Gary\u2019s sister was in love with the headmistress and had sown a path of destruction because of her unrequited feelings. \u201cThat\u2019s almost a good point, actually.\u201d Urmmm, Izzy\u2026 I thought you would have realised by now that only you can hear what\u2019s going on inside your head.<\/p>\n<p>Whoops!<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>This is a work of fiction.

You\u2019ll still enjoy all the quirky characters and get the main plot, but I\u2019ve no doubt that you\u2019ll find yourself asking, \u201cWait, what\u2019s an Ewok?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>at some point before the end. Though it offers a spoiler-free, self-contained mystery to thrill and delight you, this book has a lot (too many?) call-back jokes and references to the rest of the series. But if you absolutely love books about high school reunions and think this is just your cup of tea, then go for it. Oh, and by the way, no, there are no Ewoks in this book.<\/p>\n<p>1kitap1.com\/en Chapter One \u201cOur little girl is all grown up.\u201d Mum was in a state of wide-eyed shock. \u201cI never thought this day would come.\u201d Dad was just as bad, and my stepfather could do nothing but stand looking dazed. Practically everyone I know was squashed into the front porch of my childhood home. There were several suspects from the past cases of my surprisingly successful detective agency, an old schoolfriend and even a distant cousin or two.<\/p>\n<p>Stranger still was the fact that they were staring at me as though I was supposed to say something inspiring. My ex-boyfriend Danny had no words for me.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><em>This is a short excerpt from the opening of &ldquo;&rdquo; by Unknown, quoted for review and introduction purposes.
