So I was wondering why the author was building up a whole new world and making a “regular”murder mystery so convoluted.
I almost gave up but the story starts to pick up at the 15% mark, and the reason for having these two cities exist is starting to make sense.
It’s definitely easier to go through than his Perdido book so far.
