I was deeply interested in this mystery and where the story was going. I liked a lot of the twists but there were moments when it felt a little too long, with details and plot divergences that didn't end up going anywhere. I'm unsure about the ending most of all. I know it leads into the next book in the series but I'm not entirely sure I like where it's headed. However this is, overall, a really great new take on the police detective mystery and I'm deeply interested in what happens to these characters later. I'll for sure read the second book in the series.
