This was a book club read, and unfortunately it wasn't terribly memorable. While reading it, I was really interested in the world, but not much more. It's very political, and the mystery is steeped in that, which made it less interesting to me. And while I loved Anna, the perspective character didn't do a lot for me. I don't feel a need to continue the series, but the book on it's own was fine.
