Short Summary:

First off: No this book wont give you tips about murder or anything. I know the name sounds like it does give you tips on murder or something but it doesnt. The book is about Pippa Fitz-Amobi who decided to investigate the closed case of Andie Bell for her high school EPQ.This book is a total page turner and full of unpredictable things. But it also got my brain working with murder mysteries.

The story takes place in Little Kilton where Pip decides to investigate about Andie Bell, a girl who died 5 years ago,for her EPQ. Note that this book was published in 2017. I'll just give you a little information here. Andie was around 17 when she went missing and a few days later her boyfriend Sal was found dead. So everyone assumed that Sal killed Andie and then he felt guilty or perhaps was scared to be caught so he commited suicuide.This scenario happened in 2012 now fastforward to 2017 when Pip decides to investigate about the Andie Bell case since she wasnt convinced with the fact that Sal murdered Andie because Pip knew Sal quite well. So using the EPQ as an excuse she managed to go further into the case with the help of Ravi, Sal's brother.

        

 Like I mentioned earlier a total page turner. And the ending is literally so unexpected. I got the whole detective vibes and at one point I felt like I was in Pipa's place.There are so many suspects and so many plot twists that I lost count. I couldnt control myself and I would get up and start screaming every once in a while and I cant wait to read the sequel to this book which is Good Girl, Bad Blood.
