Over-written thriller with a complex and strong female protagonist dealing with the loss of her job, the implosion of her marriage, and the death of her best friend. Mix in discussions of blogging, domestic abuse, assisted suicide, and medical scams, and you have a barrel full of red herrings that draws attention away from the main story. I spotted The Villain as soon as the character appeared on the page, and when the heroine finally tumbles to it, 300+ pages later, there's a sudden and all-too-neat resolution.
