Title: I read 3/4 of it and skimmed the last 1/4
Product review: I was really hoping to like this book...I generally enjoy female crime fighters (ie, Kinsey Malone, Kay Scarpetta and Barbara Havers). Unfortunately, I really did not like this book. King was trying to paint the heroine as a superwoman and seemed over-anxious to prove she was as tough as a man. Also, King went heavily into descriptions on several occasions, yet I had a hard time following her. I had to reread several passages because they were so mired in detail I lost sight of the big picture. I never did get a feel for the characters. I know I was supposed to like them because the author told me how virtuous they were, but I just didn't.
