In the beginning I found it hard to get back to, but as soon as the
Spoiler the guy was found dead
and the past and the nearer past started to intertwine it was very capturing. Normally I don't like it when story lines jump, but in this case it was very well done, even the beginning part that I found less capturing was well set up to then be able to fully invested for the rest of the book, making you think "ooh maybe he done it!".
