Despite not normally reading thrillers I was excited to give this one a go as the concept sounded very interesting.
It was okay, there were good points in it but I found it to be quite unnecessarily repetitive and certain things just felt a bit odd, like why tell your dates you worked on the Anna O case if you don't want them to know?
Also not wanting to figure out who murdered your boss? I feel I'd have been more inclined to do that but no, it all seems to disappear from existence in his head until near the end.
The twist at the end was pretty good but I did have a thought that would be the person so it wasn't a complete twist.
All in the book is quite good but it just didn't live up to how I thought it would be
