Very good, especially for a first novel.
Even though I wasn't feeling well, I didn't want to stop reading.

I've read a couple of books in the Carson Ryder series and really enjoyed them, so I finally bought the first one and it's really just not as good as the others at all. I'd really give it two and a half stars (why can't we give half stars, goodreads???) as it drifted in and out of being enjoyable and then just being okay. I'm glad I read it, because back story etc, but the whole thing kind of felt a lot like that, just a back story for the rest of the books. I'm a big fan of detective novels, even totally trashy ones, I like to try and figure out who the baddie is, but this just didn't sit right, it was like two separate books and there was too many things happening. I've revisited one of his books a couple of times, but I think this one will probably just sit gathering dust.

I wanted to like this series. This is the first book and was too slow for too much of it then there were parts I didn't like. Haven't decided if I'll try the next yet.

This book is an amazing mystery, normally with these kind of books/ crime shows you can usually guess who the killer is however this one had me guessing to the end. The characters are believable and the story is a realistic one (some crime novels can get a little unrealistic), however this one really could happen and I think that's why I was so engrossed, I really wanted to know what happened and why the killer did what he did.
If you're looking for a gripping read then this is definitely the book for you, anyone who likes crime novels or tv shows will really enjoy this one, I know I certainly did!
