This novel has a good premise...a body discovered that is composed of appendages from multiple victims and the taunting of a troubled, stumbling detective...but it fails to deliver a true crime thriller impact. There are too many characters to really form any attachments, and while the misdirection is complex, perhaps it is too much so. I found myself skimming because I knew it wasn't relevant.
"...there are no 'good' people. There are just those who haven't been pushed far enough yet, and those that have."

Started as the only book I had available to me on my flight and haven't returned to it. Might try again at some point but not v high on my priority list.

I really enjoyed the twists and turns interior with moments of humour. I was slightly disappointed by the ending but it didn't spoil the overall story.
