This is a hard one to review. For one thing -- and for one <i>important</i> thing! -- the writing is an absolute joy to read. Full of snarls and wit, and a whole crew of unspeakably unlikeable characters. This alone made me ready to make it a full five stars. However, after a creepy-as-hell start, it turns into a slog of a plot. Dang it.
