I'm clearly in the minority here, but I didn't enjoy this book. It was very tedious. Pages and pages and pages of these characters justifying to themselves and their spouse over and over again why they're going to keep certain facts hidden from the police. The police of course are utterly inept and ignore everything that's important while focusing on crap that's easily explained. The mayor is straight out of a melodrama, practically twirling his mustache and cackling as he molests underage prostitutes, but somehow always getting away with it. Too many coincidences. Too many convenient secrets. I just felt like nothing rang true, nothing the characters did made sense, and the more they tried to justify it with their whining and bickering, the more I hated them. I was so angry by the time I finished, I wished I could have kicked them all in the junk. (And I really didn't care who the killer was.)
