So I listened to the audiobook version of this novel, and I really enjoyed the layout of the story. I think part of that has to do with the narrator...huge thanks, Rory Kinnear. It was a brilliant book and I haven't ever heard of the author using himself as the main character. Currently, I am taking a beginner CSI class and of course obsessed with Criminal Minds, Monk, and Castle so this book only added to my interests right now. I am only giving it 4 stars because I don't see myself rereading this book, usually meaning that there was something lacking -I just can't put my finger on it right now.
