A kind of bizarre book for several reasons. The first being that I switched from audio to the ebook about 80% of the way through because I was really digging the mystery and wanted to continue listening but I didn’t have any more things to do while listening. I’ve done this several times before. So I began reading the book to find that the prose as it was written didn’t work for me at all. It felt overdramatic and soap opera-y. Narrators had managed to play off the text so well, I barely noticed while listening to the book. Reading the book, however, was an eye-rolling chore.

I’m not sure how much of my following opinions would have been different had I listened to the book instead of reading the last 20%. But essentially, the mystery comes down to this: people died because decisions were made that make no sense at all. This goes far beyond people losing their heads in panic. It just doesn’t make sense.
