This book had rave reviews on the cover, being the best thriller since The Silence of the Lambs, one of the best thrillers written, I assure that is not true. This is an ok police procedural that informs the reader who did it about half way through, has a predictable subplot and an ending you can see a mile away. It is written in a way that forces the reader to read slowly, I did finish it, it was ok, but nothing that would have me seek any future books by this author and I certainly will not remember this one much after I click enter.
