Wow this book was a wild ride that I thoroughly enjoyed and could NOT put down. Loved the plot, guessed *some* of the twists, but not all! The dialog was sometimes a bit....sitcom-y sometimes?? And it sort of threw me off a bit, but I eventually got used to it and let the story take me away. Was gory but not the most so that I have ever read. For this author's first novel it was very well done!
