Needs a decent editor, there are numerous mistakes in punctuation and spelling - in fact the spelling mistakes are like it's been spell checked by something that doesn't understand enough English to know what homophones mean and has picked the wrong one. That aside, it's perfectly readable as long as you listen to what you read and don't assume the spelling is what was meant.
Enjoyed the book, good plot, still keeping a few secrets from the reader mind you.
