Bump Off Lover is a well-written psychological mystery with twists that are surprising yet logical. It hooked me right in with a girl falling off a school rooftop. Was it a suicide or was it a murder? The mystery deepened when the police's primary suspect, a boy from the same school, killed himself after a trial by media. Everyone was satisfied with the police verdict: He committed suicide out of guilt. But not the girl's twin sister nor the boy's elder brother. Because the police never explained the Why. Following the siblings' investigation is like walking through a real house of horror. You think you are only there to check out eyeballs in a jar, then, you discover the eyeballs belonged to the guy standing next to you. OMG. Finding out why the girl died was like that. My jaw dropped when the final truth was revealed (I said "final" because there were many layers of truth and each one peeled back to reveal another layer of lies and deceits.) The show kept me guessing to the end. The little devil on my shoulder whispered, the dead girl got it coming.
To this day, I still remember how my heart ached for that poor boy. When everybody was pressuring him to say something, anything, he spoke not a word. Not even to defend himself. His soulful eyes, however, spoke volume of his loneliness and frustration, and his resolve to take whatever secret it was to his grave. IMO, he is the only innocent victim in the entire drama.
The music, oh, the music! Angela Chang's "Invisible Wings" and "The Sky within a Pocket" are still top favorites on my playlist.
