Bought it ages ago from a little charity shop in Leytonstone and never manage to get around reading it. Also because I had already watched both seasons of the TV show. 

I could not put this book down! It was so easy to read and follow, full of suspense and just a great dynamic flow altogether! Even shed some tears towards the end (for Renata's letter to Ziggy and for the last chapter).
I am always afraid that books don't hold well with such well-written tv shows, but I believe that both this book and its show are so very strong, even in their differences. 

Will definitely keep an eye out for more of Moriarty's work next time I hop into a second-hand bookshop!
