A review by julesg
Give the Devil His Due by Steve Hockensmith, Lisa Falco

2.0

The mystery was good, the plot twists and the blast from the past were also well-educated.

There were so many characters who tried to get my attention and I didn't root for any of them, heightened by dialogues that felt as if I was listening to "tweens" during recess.

The Tarot cards at the beginnings of each chapter - I wanted to read the descriptions but gave up after a few chapters. It bored me.

There were too many references to TV shows, films, songs, what-have-we-not.
