I really enjoyed the build up in this book. However I found the resolution to be quite lacking. I had a few guesses about what was going and none of them were even close to what happened. Usually I would really enjoy being thrown off the trail, but here what actually happened was so bizarre I could not have guessed it was going to be an option. The characters were fine, but there was very little that was memorable about them.
