Should Have Known Better

The story gradually revealed secrets, making me wonder if the pacing was planned to keep readers guessing or evolved during writing. I’d love to hear what inspired this approach.

The characters' betrayals and regrets felt very real, almost personal. How did the author craft such authentic emotional moments amidst the mystery?

The small-town backdrop added a layer of intimacy and tension. I wonder if the author drew from personal experiences or crafted it entirely from imagination.
