No
Had to read for a uni assessment. Did not like this book at all. Brodie gave me the ick. The portrayal of women characters was so misogynistic (ESPECIALLY MARLEE BU HER OWN FATHER EVEN THOUGH SHES 8!). More like a boring slice of life novel than a detective story, which lead to a very lackluster pay-off. Would not reccommend.
