3.0

One of the ones where I actually had at least partially solved the mystery.Now I feel like a genius :).
However be aware: Very big themes of colonialism, racism, exoticism...which is why I really can not rate this book any higher! Also the romance was a bit abrupt and went from 0 to 100% rather quickly
