Jim's Review

🐛
A wedding, an island, a storm, and a murder — Jim approves of this setup. Foley rotates through multiple perspectives and timelines, slowly revealing how everyone's grudges connect. It's not subtle, but it's propulsive and satisfying. The victim is guessable early but the killer isn't, which is the right ratio. Three worms — a party worth attending.
