Good review, Prisallen. I liked the settings in the amazing plot –about the hint “The Beatles' Song Murderer” and the mystery of hello vs goodbye. It must be a challenge for Sean to resolve the twisted suspense.

This is an interesting murder-mystery thriller highlighting a serial killer, love, loss, grief, music, Beatles, Cancer, and a classic Whodunit plot. The book is free on Kindle Unlimited and has an inciteful OnlineBookClub review. Congrats @KeithSteinbaum on the BOTD selection.

A twisted and exciting read with great music. I can't wait to read more. I have never read mystery that involved music in such a dark way.

I love your simple yet very detailed summary. I feel sorry for Sean for going through the death of his girlfriend, and having learnt he has cancer, and being asked to engage in solving the murder of his girl. And the serial killer's way of playing with the authorities with Beatles' songs is crazy. I'm going off topic and this isn't even similar with the story, but it reminded me out of nowhere of this unsolved mystery in the Philippines about a particular song that allegedly kills anyone who sings it on the karaoke. Most of the victims were gunned down. There's a theory that it was the work of a serial killer who hated the song. I just thought I might share. Lol. Anyways, I loved your review.

An engaging murder mystery mixed with a inspirational fight against cancer in this book "You Say Goodbye" by Keith Steinbaum makes it double engaging. The author has nicely blended the two in this story with a nice writing. Hope to read this book at earliest.
life is only knowing the unknown, we can do this by reading books easily- Online book club is a great place for this. This is what I believe.

Sean went through so much! And a serial killer who leaves words from The Beatles' songs is unique but terrifying! I'm glad Sean and Kayleigh connected! Thanks for the excellent review!

Great job on highlighting the character development. Good overall review, as it can be hard not to give too much away in a murder mystery.

Today's BOTD combines elements of a drama with those of a crime thriller. The character development is top-notch and the storyline will pull readers in right from the start. I'm looking forward to reading this one...it sounds awesome! Thanks so much for your helpful review! :-)

Seeing another person in similar problems can help or should I say helping others sometimes help in copping with personal problems.

This looks like an interesting murder mystery, and from the review I detect a hint of something more. I think it will be interesting to see how Sean changes from a self-centered man, with dreams of being a music legend to a more caring person. Thanks for the good review.
