This was a very average run-of-the-mill thriller novel. I would say the most interesting thing about it was the almost completely female cast. The characters were all very one-note and lacked dimension, and they didn't develop throughout the course of the book. The plot twists were pretty predictable.
The writing was interesting and it was a pretty quick read. I didn't like the way it handled the suicide.
