This book was interesting enough for me to finish and find out who did it but it was terribly slow. I enjoyed the multi perspective story telling but at times it just felt a little choppy, like you were lurching between timelines. There were also 2 typos/misprints (?) in the book where they are talking about a character who isn’t there and the next line is that character saying something.
