By lunchtime I was in an interview room picking dried blood out from under my fingernails while two detectives explained what they wanted me to write in my confession. Not that I blame them. I was always going to be the best story.

I'm torn between loving this story and being bored by it. The premise is insanely good, and while I did enjoy the book immensely I feel that it stumbles in a few aspects, namely in its characters and their relationships.
