The writing is a bit of a put off
“…grabs the circular stool near the morgue table, sitting on top of it and rolling his way in front of the tied man. Similar to how a doctor would do examining a patient.”
It doesn’t put me in the scene as much as “…sits on the circular stool and rolls his way in front of the tied man, like a doctor with his patient.” It’s just cleaner, IMO.

Based on the little bit I have actually gleaned from the text my bets are either on the mayor himself or Easton Sinclair. Dun dun dunnnnn

It seems pretty slow so far pacing wise but I can tell the pieces are going to come together. A few small surprises have happened and some predictable “turn of events” have also happened. I didn’t look to see if this was trad or indie but I’m assuming indie because it could have benefited from editing. That said, it’s better than several trad books I’ve read lately 👀 Glad I picked it up!
