A twisty, turny road all the way through. Not gonna lie, this is a little too plot heavy for me. I had a pretty good time with it, but with so much to uncover, there's hardly any time for the story to breathe. Instead, there's a lot of explaining going on. Even during the final chapters. And there's a character that felt out of place at times. The Ghost. Like a Tarantino character in a Fincher movie? Something like that. Not a bad read, certainly not, but some things just didn't entirely work for me. Coben's sarcasm did. Well-dosed, this time.
