I picked this one up because I've seen so many people raving about how they were shocked by the twists. (And of course, there's the infamous chapter 39.) But while I enjoyed the book, the twists were hugely predictable for me. Marrs spins a great story and it was an enjoyable read, but it didn't stand out for me.
