This is one of those books where I gave it a three star review, but I swear I liked it! I just couldn’t give it a higher rating for a couple reasons.
The first being that in the book and audio there are not clear markers on the different POV’s. Each paragraph break is kind of a free for all, the POV could really be anyone. With the audiobook, it really became a challenge and I had to listen extra carefully, as there was no clear indicator or long enough audible break between POV changes.
The second, was because I’m an avid mystery/thriller reader. I kept thinking that if I was new to the genre (the morbidity in the book aside), this concept could be a great one to get me hooked into detective based thrillers. But, I’m not, and the ending just didn’t give me the satisfaction I was looking for and honestly, I preferred his newest book A Killer’s Mind a lot more. Seriously, Zoe Bentley is great and I didn’t realize that she is a side character from this series! It was a nice surprise.
