In typical John Marrs fashion this book was neither predictable nor boring. The beginning dragged a little bit but I was already hooked and wanted answers. The second half was really thrilling and I couldn’t put it down. Unfortunately I didn’t care for the ending. It didn’t feel satisfying in any way to me.
