This was an interesting book to read. I'm glad I knew to expect the first half to be slow; if not, I'd probably have DNF'd it. There was a lot of build up on the characters and the plot but when it finally picked up, it really picked up.
I loved the short quick chapters from the differing point of views. It's always enjoyable to me when I can see the story through someone else's eyes and not just the MC. There are red herrings and twists throughout the book and it was fun to wonder what was what and see how it finally all played out.
Rated 3/5, and recommended to those that like mysteries (thrillers might be stretching it just a bit) and can make it through the first half of a slow book.
