Spoilers

  • Writer Isador "Isa" Pinto revealed that the book is inspired by Clue and Knives Out.[1]

Trivia

  • On January 2024, the cost of the chapters was reverted in preparations to Storyloom's closure.
  • This is a closed circle mystery, meaning that a murder is investigated and that the murderer comes from a small group of suspects and is not an outsider, which means that the protagonist has to investigate one suspect after the other to figure out who of them is the killer.[2] Another closed circle mystery by PB is The Deadliest Game.
