Not enough action. This should have been much more exciting. There was a cult! There was a murder! Why wasn't I excited??
Adams needs to be a thousand times more famous than he is. He's a master of misdirection and surprises. He must have pored over the details while he was plotting this book, because there was a lot that needed to be obscured for it to work, and I don't think anything fell apart.
This had a lot of great twists, and I was admittedly surprised by the identity of Ben's killer, but...I don't know. There was something lacking. I didn't really connect with any of the characters. And Hank seemed tacked on.
This was an excellent elevation of the genre – very smart and complex without being overly complicated. I got lost in this book multiple times, reading more than I thought I would in one sitting. That's the sign of a great book.
Definitely entertaining, at least until it got really dark toward the end and I felt like I had whiplash. Also, it felt like Louise's character and sections were thin. There was too much going on and too many voices were highlighted for some of the characters to get the details they deserved.
