A fantastic book! I don't categorize this one as mystery because we know from the beginning who the culprit is. The suspense comes from the efforts of said guilty part to stop the investigations and the fact that, even when WE know, the main characters, don't.
The antagonist is a really powerful, connected man which makes him very dangerous. And he is a total psychopath.
The story is very well written, and I particularly liked that Zack and Beck met each other in a time in which both of them were undamaged, but now both of them have scars: physical and mental ones. And both are coming from a break-up, both are dealing with people who depend on them, and both are overwhelmed with guilt. Not a good fundament to build a relationship, isn't it? and yet...
The thing is, the way in which they get together is really organic and not without obstacles which makes it very real and plausible.
A great story and I would dig right into the second in the series right now, but the third book in 'Bitter Legacy' is out, so... I'll be back to this series later :P
