3.5
For as much as I thought this book would be a high stakes takedown of various people in positions of power, it ended up feeling very low stakes, without much of a resolution.

not for me, bored to death, slogged through as it was an audio and I had nothing else to listen to on my drive.

Iba muy bien, muy atrapante hasta la mitad. Luego, se mantuvo mucho en el “climax” o parte alta de la historia y eso terminó por aburrir.
Cuando se descubre la verdad, también es como simple y no muy novedoso.
Está bien escrito y es entretenido de todas maneras!

The writing style in this book should be read by anyone who wants to write for a living. It is that which will probably have me read another of the Quirke series before long. The story is probably misrepresented as a mystery. It isn't much of one, certainly not that engrossing. One reviewer said this book ended more like a soap opera, I think that is a fair characterization.

Well written story that didn't entirely succeed as a mystery as I felt there were a few too many coincidences. 3 1/2 stars
