can i solve the most hyped murder mystery of the year? 🔎 

gus is actually called GUY HAHAHAH!! one typo when typing out the characters on my phone and i lived in that delulu forever even though i would constantly be reading "Guy" in the book my brain was like ✨no, Gus hehe✨

could this become a series! the premise of reading a book alongside you is so fun!

I can’t get over the celebrity fan casting for these characters 😂😂❤ will Ferris and Michael c’era took me out

There is such tension between me wanting desperately to watch this video vs. me wanting to experience this book without knowing anything (not out where I am yet) I dont know what to do, a Sophie’s choice

You should try solving Cain’s Jawbone! That one’s a nightmare I didn’t get far! 😂 maybe u can! 🤩 good luck if u do try it!

I totally called it from the beginning of the book because I knew it would be the most ridiculous ending. Also agree with you about the final twist re:the sister.

I was convinced that “Luke” wasn’t the one who died to begin with. I thought he had switched places with someone else again. I’m still hoping we get a second book that debunks Guy being the killer and reveals that the body wasn’t even Luke. That’s the ending I needed!!!

SPOILERS . . . I thought the imposter Luke would turn out to be Caroline's first child and that the difference in age was just due to the imposter being two years younger than the real Luke. Now THAT would have been a wild twist. Anyway this was super fun! Logan Lerman as a killer would truly be PEAK. Looking forward to Christmas and the next episode!

I just finished this book so I am excited to finally be able to watch this

Spoilers: I saw a theory that Wilson and Luke have the same hair and build, so luke killed Wilson to inherit his grandparent's money and moved to Africa. Face was slashed, so couldn't identify him properly. Luke could have put his jacket on Wilson's body. I still think Luke is alive, impersonating as Wilson and blaming the murder on Guy. Remember, Amelie never confirmed or vocalised that her brother was the one who murded luke

love the video ❤❤❤ whenever you mention fair play murder mystery I can't help thinking how much you'll love Everyone in my family has killed someone, since it's told following the commandments of fair play in the Golden Age of mysteries, and has so much drama and campiness to it. It's set at a ski resort so it could be a perfect winter read!

I still have questions!: Where was Amanda going when she crashed? Who was the father of Caroline's baby? What was the call that Rupert took at the reunion dinner? Why did Caroline have mud in her shoes?

2 mins in and the DRAMA - I'm obsessed. you deserve an oscar

I really love these videos from you 💛

This was so much fun, Meg!

Such a amazing vídeo, i love it meg!

Lovely idea of solving the murder with you. I hope I don't have to wait too long for it to come out!

Loved reading this and checking in each episode! Made such a great reading experience! Thankyou for your content! ❤

This is amazing Meg! I love it! Cara x

This was such a fun video!! And you look like you were having so much fun making it 🥹

You are so unserious I love it. You make solving murder mysteries look so fun!

Read the book along with you throughout the video - so much fun! Thanks for making these.

I love videos like this because I don't like reading or watching anything about murders but I want to know how the plot works and this gives me the best of both worlds.

I hope you make another one of these. Loved reading it along side you.

I watched this video in between reading the book and absolutely loved the experience. More videos like this please!!

Haven’t read the book but was thoroughly entertained anyway 😂 I didn’t guess either

This book wasn't even on my radar but this was too fun to pass up! There're so many questions left unanswered 😭 I did not predict the murderer correctly either but I do have the theory that Jonah's sister was grandma Howard's nurse (Sylvia Carrol) and that they recognised each other when he visited as 'Luke'. And then she killed Guy as revenge

i just read the book and watched your video update meanwhile. Omg, i had so similar theories! You completely disrupted my plans for the day but i really enjoyed so i forgive haha

I CALLED IT. I read along with you and I am actually shocked I guessed right early on. Pretty much the first chapter. SHOOK

How inept were these cops that didn't check the washer for clothes for blood???

i just dnf’d this because i hated the writing style but i loved this video!! you’re so entertaining to watch 🥰

This was the best! 😂🎉

I suspected who it was before I even read 80 pages and turned out to be correct. Absolutely loved this video, please do more of these

Loved the video. More than that, loved the experience of reading the book and stoping at the end of every chapter to listen to your summary and theories. Lately had some difficulty enjoying thrillers/murder mysteries/crime novels and this book (in my opinion) was still not as good as it promissed but the hole experience of reading and watching the video was excellent. I did thought of Guy as the murderer a couple of times, and I did think that he probably would not remmember it, but I can't say I feel like I solved it because I never actually thought it would be the kind of ending I wanted so I always dismissed it. Looking foward to doing it again.

Girl this B-roll had be ROLLING oh my god

First off.. I love this video concept! Well done! I really hope you do more like it. And thank you!! I bought this book because I wanted to read along with your video. I loved the book and I actually solved the murder!!! I knew who did it by page 74 and even guessed the weapon!! I never guess right, so I'm very excited! Love your channel!!

i loved this book for the mixed media! I did guess exactly what happened after about 10 pages but it was still fun lol

I solved it, not because of the clues, but I figured that’d be the “biggest, unsuspecting twist”

I love Detective Megan!! 🕵🏻‍♀️

I read this book along with you and loved it. Believe it or not the killer was my first theory! I wrote it in my notes app and then pretty much forgot about it, went on a wild ride and then the reveal… I couldn’t believe it got it!!

I made my prediction at the start as a goof but wow I can't believe I'm actually a crime solving genius 💆‍♀️

I waited for the book to come out in North America so i could watch this video, but I got bored in the first chapter and came to watch you try to solve it instead lol. I was right: it was much more fun watching you solve it than actually reading it!

How tf do a 10 year old beat a grown man’s face in how does that happen???? That’s a glaring plot hole to me it doesn’t make sense

Yes you’re right about the sister thing!

finished this book about ten minutes ago let’s goooo, i can’t wait to see how you found the book and solving it!!!

This video was more entertaining to me than reading the actual book. 👀

Saving this until I can read it too

Y’know, maybe you’d solve “The Westing Game”, it’s very fair-play!

Yes, I have read it and thoroughly enjoyed it. And no, I didn’t solve it, but like you I had it down to one of the sisters.

11/10 video

Thought of you when listening to None of this is True by Lisa Jewel bc the audiobook is a full cast and has the podcast element done so well!!!! 5 🌟 read for me!!!

Not Gus 😂😂😂

Wow I’m really early 😂❤

I guessed it was Gus within the first 50 pages or so but tried to be in denial about it because I didn’t want to spoil it for myself

I love these videos. However, I felt like the mystery once again wasn't very fair play. It was still enjoyable watching you try to solve the book. I would love to see you try and solve more in the future.

Fake Luke was the killer is how I read it and he smashed the face in so he couldn’t be identified

I've never even heard of this book 😅

I decided to put down my theory when you did. Feeling pretty vindicated but was a little off and since none of my friends have read it, putting it here. SPOILER!! My theory was that the girls resented him but seemed to shrug him off for most part. Gus very clearly disliked him. What if he pushed him down the stairs and the girls came home and beat his face into oblivion to make it look like a murder. To protect Gus. It obviously slipped my mind that it was the face-bashing was the cause of death. Still feeling kinda good about it though.

These videos are hilarious, keep them coming though they consume all your brain power they're so fun for us. I have zero interest in this type of murder mystery books, your videos make them fun..and the casting choices always on point 😁

*Cries in American*

They really did cast the whole of sex education in Barbie huh

SPOILERS I knew it would be Guy or Amelie. Amelie is just so the most sus character ever but at one point I was like I bet it’s Guy trying to blame someone else. I didn’t think he had memory loss so that was a shock however I did think he killed him. 10 year olds can be crazy

Do cain’s jawbone Meg!

Okay, I haven't read this book and I'm at the end of episode one in the video, but I'm going to make some predictions. Note: I'm one of those people who always think they know who the murderer is and then get angry at the author for giving us the wrong murderer when I'm wrong. I will try not to rant on here if the author gets it wrong. So, my thoughts: The wife is a bit too obvious and she has a lot of red flags around her already, so I don't think it's her. Again, haven't read it, but Rupert being described as a jerk automatically takes him off my suspect list because it's never the jerks. They either get in the way of the investigation or decide they know what happened and treat people accordingly. I think it was the 15 year old who found the body (Mora, can't see the murder board well enough). My main reason is because she is (I think) closer in age to the victim and they may have a hard time getting along or may get along too well. . . Also, if we're throwing any of the investigators under the bus, I think it'll be the Psychiatrist. She either worked with the victim or his killer and is now feeling guilty that she didn't act before he was murdered. Just my thoughts, I have no idea if any of it is true, but will finish the video now. Edit: Well then . . . That happened. I don't want to spoil it for anyone who has gotten to the end, but I feel like that ending has become the norm that it is a cliche now. Logistically, I don't know how it could of been possible in this case, with the way Luke died. I swear every mystery I've watched in the past few years has done some variation on this ending and it's not shocking to me anymore. Disappointed.

I love you and want to Watch everything you post, but I can't let you spoil this for me 😂 see you later!

I just want you to know (so it infuriates you), in Alabama we definitely butcher Birmingham by stressing the HAM part. With a long a sound. Lol.

I read the book so I could watch this video. The book disappointed me, the video did not 😌

I did solve it but I couldn't have explained why 😅

why was i thinking that luke was the baby that was adopted and all the other kids had a hidden bby daddy? and that all the kids found out and did it?

Going to break this up and do it along with episode at a time. Let’s see how wrong I’m gonna be 😂

I have a question I’m sorry if I sound stupid but can someone please explain why Jonah faked his identity??

Is rebecca the sister of real luke or fake luke? Because if she's fake/australian luke's sister she doesn't have a reason to kill gus, and if she's real canadian luke's sister why would she then take the watch and drop it in australia? 🧐

Ma’am I live in the United States, I thought you were involved in real gun violence. Trigger warning next time 😌

Americans- just order from Waterstones. Takes a few days. I love having an account there for when the UK releases are way ahead of US. This video was too much fun! Do more!

I just finished the book! And i can proudly say that I’ve solved it 🥹 All that time spent on reading Christies finally paid off. Anyway, I quite like how the book ended. I would love to see more of this as a series since I got no one to talk to about fictional mysteries ☺️

I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS VIDEO!!!!😍😍😍 keeping my on watch later until my copy of the book arrives 🧡🩵🩷
