I didn't enjoy this as much as previous books in this series. The characters seemed flat and it lacked suspense. Overall it felt predictable, almost like I've read a story like this before. Disappointing.

A rather slow first few chapters but once I got past that I could hardly put it down. Half saw who the murderer was coming, but that ending was completely unexpected
