This one's going to stay with me for a while.
The writing is elegant and erudite, but so readable. I don't think it ended up being exactly what I was expecting when I picked it up, however, I became thoroughly hypnotized by the characters. The plot kept me guessing the whole way, despite giving away a lot of the story in the first few pages. I plan on picking it up again.
All I can think is..."with friends like these..."
