I enjoyed this immensely this read we follow Georgia Benson who after failing her driving test by crashing into a building, then while unblocking her drains she gets the unwelcome surprise of answering the door to Hannah Brocklehurst, her highschool nemesis who she holds responsible for a humiliatingly traumatic event at school. To her horror Hannah has moved into her building and invites her to a house warming, she is dragged to it by her roommate Cherry who is a sex worker, after enduring it for bit she leaves to wallow in her misery in her room. While wallowing she decides to catfish Hannah hoping for some petty revenge with hope Hannah leaves either in humiliation or if the date goes well she moves in with her new love and departs Georgia's building. She about her plan with Cherry's disapproval, she finds a likely candidate that is Hannah's type, makes some fake dating profiles, orchestrates messages between the two with her pretending to be Hannah and the guy for each of them arranging the date. Georgia spies from a distance to see how the date goes, what she doesn't expect is to witness Hannah getting abducted and the guy seemingly helping the kidnappers. Georgia is left with massive guilt and also fear of her inadvertent involvement in the abduction because of her petty actions, so she sets out to look for Hannah when it's seems like the police are not treating it top priority as there is a missing diamond. Her chaotic investigating lead her to find connection between Hannah and the missing diamond, she also makes the friendly acquaintance of one of the cops who is looking into Hannah's abduction that gives her some insight to how the case is going even when she is told not to get involved. Honestly this was so great and I found Georgia to be relatable in how she acts first her pettiness in wanting revenge against a bully but also how she feels she has to find Hannah as she was responsible and her guilt. They was a scene where she hopes to get information from a Estonian gangster that is funny and a bit cringe in her actions in trying to get it, also I was surprised by that twist, did not expect it but looking back I should have seen it. This was great and I can't wait for the next one.
