In the end, I thought this was fine. It was a bit long for me, at almost 13 hours audio, and I found the slow burn pace a little exhausting.

I want to formulate my thoughts for a more thorough and fair review. In the end, maybe I'm getting tired of suspenseful mysteries, as this one didn't hit me fresh. Incredibly pretentious characters, although...that was the point. 😂
