I found it a bit hard to get into the first 75 pages or so. There was lots of background info, and it was difficult to know so early on why it was relevant. Once I got thru the first 75 pages I found the book quite enjoyable, though the writing style remained a bit dry.

I was expecting a murder mystery thriller type of book, but it was more of a criminal analysis. Almost textbook like.
