I loved everything about this book aside from the narrator, Andi Arndt. So many extremely badly pronounced Japanese words. I've been pampered by the many books I've read by Asian authors that bothered to get narrators who can pronounce the source material well. It took me out of the story often enough to stop what I was doing and write this review. 
The story itself was creepy in all the best ways, full of vindication and revenge, but also weaves in a lesson along the way. I really enjoyed it and plan to read as much as I can find by this author.
