Dr. Frederik Starks is a psychoanalyst living in New York. On his 53rd birthday he recieves a letter by “Rumplestiltzkin” stating that Dr. Starks ruined his life and
to be punished for it he has 15 days to uncover Rumplestiltzkin’s identity
or commit suicide. If he fails to do
so, Rumpelstilizken will destroy the life of one of Dr. Stark's family members.

Being interested in psychology, the plot appealed to me; will the Dr. be able to deduct Rumpelstilizken’s identity based on the few clues he has? What drove “R” to such drastic measures?
Sadly I ended up not feeling drawn towards the characters at all; the style of writing was repetitive, clunky and strenuous to
read resulting in me being too bored to really care if Dr. Starks succeds or not. The book picks up speed in the last quarter and finally got me interested in finding out who R is but it was just too little, too late. The ending was also rather unsatisfying so overall I feel this book wasn’t worth my time and would not recommend it.
