I was disappointed by this book. I predicted at least part of the ending after the first chapter, and it felt like the author was so concerned with creating a twist ending that the plot became cartoonishly implausible. Too much of the plot was cliche and trite, and there are so many unanswered questions and unresolved plot lines. An episode of Criminal Minds is better written than this book.
