I struggled to get into this. I found myself zoning out while reading this. Part of me wishes this focused on either the womens journey or the murder mystery and not both. I felt like part of both stories got lost with it jumping between. 
I found myself lost at times. But also just as I would become slightly interested in one side of the story it would flip to the other. 

The characters were flat. I found it difficult to figure who was who as their voices all sounded the same. They were likable enough but thats it. Nothing special. Nothing to make any stand out. 

The pacing was way too slow. I can enjoy a slow paced book if it has tension or atmosphere. Something to keep me invested. But this lacked both. There was no tension really. No fear that another murder could happen.  It just dragged on. 

In the end I may have finished the book but I didnt care about who did it or what happened. I just wanted it done with.
