This story made me so incredibly anxious. I am not built for stories about crime. The two main characters were extremely well rounded and interesting, as were all of the side characters. No doubt in my mind that the author is an incredible writer. I thought the side plot of the Russian ancestry was definitely interesting. At some points it dragged on when I was just so anxious to see how it would turn out. I’m glad I read it, but I like her other two novels better.
