This book I started this morning and finished around 3 or 4PM, it was a very face paced read but I did not like it as much as I thought I would, I liked eight perfect murders way better.

2.5/5

It's not bad, by any means, but it just doesn't make for too interesting of a mystery. The reveal is disappointing and there were essentially no clues that could have led an attentive reader in the right direction. Further, the motive is fairly derivative and became far too obvious in my opinion.
