I know that Ryan was written as a sort of antihero, but he is truly one of the most unlikable, lazy detectives I’ve ever read. I truly can’t believe I finished this book.
I think I was mostly hoping for some sort of big reveal on his childhood mystery, but don’t waste your time if that’s why you keep reading this book.
He’s a shitty detectives, a shitty friend, a shitty son, and a shitty roommate and he makes virtually no apologies for it.
From the moment Rosalind attached herself to Ryan, I knew what she was and that she was behind her sister’s murder. That the author thought it was some kind of giant twist speaks volumes to the gullibility of readers if they didn’t see that coming a mile away.
The only redeeming part of this book is that Cassie ends up with a romantic partner who sees, respects and cares for her.
