The book started out slow, which was not unexpected since The Heir was basically the same way. But once it got going, about 50 pages in, it held my interest. It is a story of loss, redemption and change, a story of human nature. It keeps you guessing who the villian is until the end.

Pretty intresting. Kept my interest until the end. Enjoyed the main character and his wife. Loved the setting in an old building bookstore.
This is one that I would like to see a series using these main characters to solve the crimes.

Very slow moving; boring interaction among the characters. It was a chore to even finish the book, but I kept thinking it would get better. It finally did -- for the last 20 pages or so.
