This was a lot of fun — and had a lot of promise — but I wanted more out of quite a few different plot lines. 

Kudos to the author for a fairly authentic depiction of public radio and podcasting, which is surprisingly rare in fiction. It's the first time I've read a book that focuses on audio reporting and haven't wanted to shout, "That's not how that works!"
