Surprisingly, the story held my interest from the first page to the last. I enjoyed the twist and turns in the book, and couldn’t put it down.

I really enjoyed the story. I love this type of mystery. But unfortunately I have never seen a book with so many errors (typos and grammatical errors).... its shameful to publish a book in this condition...
