Fire on the Island by Timothy Jay Smith

1.0

DNF at 120 pages.
This book is incredibly dialogue-heavy and switches perspective way too often, sometimes in the middle of a section. The characters are on the nose and by-and-large obnoxious. There was no way in hell I was ever going to root for the 17-year-old and the 20-something to get together why was that a thing?
The mystery was simple and honestly, the general setup just required the reader to jump through so many hoops in order just to believe it. Like in what world is a US FBI agent going undercover in Greece to investigate a series of non-lethal arsons?
