Reviews

[Dana Shaffer · Rating 1 out of 5]

I got this book from a little free library, but seriously? They should have just put it in the trash. An unlikable protagonist, uninteresting characters and a mystery that never comes to a conclusion. Oddly enough it is easily readable which is why I continued to the end hoping to see how all the random threads tied together. Only to realize it was first in a series of three. To be continued.... Uh, no thanks.
