I finished this book but didn't really enjoy it. I found it difficult to relate to any of the characters and thought the plot was totally implausible. The language, when slang, seemed contrived and I felt chapter thirty was unnecessarily gruesome - as if it had been done for effect.
Having said all that, I felt compelled to finish it, just to see where it would go, and I suppose that is the whole purpose of a thriller, so it did hold my attention.
Sorry I can't be more positive but I was surprised that it had received glowing reviews. Perhaps it just wasn't my type of book.
