review 1: A really enjoyable and interesting novel. As with previous novels by the author the story moves along in an in intricate multi layered fashion which really pulls the reader in. The characters are detailed and thought provoking, added to the well researched theme along with a very gritty view of Washingtons police dept this is fully recommended. I look forward to getting through the remainder and of this authors catalogue.
review 2: Very readable. At the beginning of the book, the shared story-telling alternating between the detective side and the "bad guy" side is interesting. However, it quickly hits its limit in so far as the investigation is not getting anywhere. Finally, it ends with a disappointed ending where the "bad guys" have to tell the main detective
... more almost everything because he discovered very little. Frustrating and disappointing. less
