It's hard to pin down what I didn't like about this book. Although this is the first in the series, there are numerous references to characters and events from prior books by this author, so I continually felt like I was missing out on something. Some of those characters are major players in this book.
The plot line was good, with plenty of twists and turns, but many of the characters seemed a bit flat and one dimensional. I found myself not particularly caring what happened to Sally, although one of the secondary characters seemed far more interesting than Sally was. I wanted to go through Van Wormer's back list to find the book about that secondary character, rather than finish this book.
