Although I liked the book, it took me a while to get through it and I was forcing myself a bit. I did predict pretty much how everything was going to go fairly early on, but I do think it was in character for the protagonists to miss what the reader would be able to put together. The characters were interesting enough; Elsie grew on me later into her character development. The book feels very much like Elsie's story despite having Bacchus's perspective, and there is a small cast of supporting characters that play into the mystery. Overall it was an okay time and I plan to read the sequel.
