Helpful Score: 4

This kept me riveted. Half the time I could not figure out what was going on, and I actually enjoyed that. I'm usually knocking on authors who use multiple point of views, and this one was peppered with different pov's, but it enhanced this plot and didn't detract from it at all. It seemed like an actual police investigation where there are a lot of spoons in the pot and strong personalities with opposing theories, power plays, and heaps of personal drama thrown into the mix. You are bombarded with tidbits of information from multiple people, and part of the trick to this book is deciphering which turn out to be accurate and which are conjecture that don't lead anywhere. I stayed up until 1 am to finish this book, even though I knew I'd have to be up by 6. I don't read a lot of suspense/thriller books, but I'll probably pick them up more often after this one--and I will definintely read more by this author. The crime was original and well thought out.
