3.0

This book is missing two important things, IMO:
 
 
1. We never find out any detail regarding Alex' history with Dom. What did she do? How much money does she owe him? What exactly is their relationship? All the vague hints seem to set up a big reveal... which never happens.

2. A decent ending. We're left hanging, as if there's going to be a sequel. I don't think there's going to be a sequel.
