There are some moments of confusion or where characters act in ways that require you to really suspend your disbelief. The time skips toward the end felt a bit disjointed. Overall though, I was able to follow and stay engaged throughout.

It felt like there was a lot of research done to determine, say, the names of streets and certain landmark businesses in Lawrence, KS. But then other basic things were really overlooked. For example, an American would never say "I just got out of hospital." They'd say, "I just got out of the hospital." I know it's small but it really sounds strange to an American ear. Also, there's no such thing as the Kansas Police Department. Here, it's the [City] Police Department (so, in this case, Lawrence Police Department) or the [State} Bureau of Investigation (Kansas Bureau of Investigation).
Like I said, the story was great but I, personally, really struggled to stick with the story when I kept getting distracted by these little things.
