3.0

Promising concept, but there were waay too many characters. There were *ten* (maybe more?) main characters - therefore it was hard to form a connection with any of them, particularly being switched back and forth constantly. 

Being so hard to follow took away any enjoyment which could have been gained from the plot. A general lack of suspense also contributed to a mediocre read.
