This one definitely had me cringing at times at the ~spice~ if you will, but the ending really got me good. As always, in true SJM fashion, the last hundred or so pages are the real meat and potatoes of this one, and although i'd guessed a few things it still had me rushing to get to the next page to know what exactly would happen! I would say the rest of the book was too long though, really needed a bit of trimming down as i got bogged down in all the set-ups and meandering sleuthing and sneaking and hacking and all the rest.
