Title: painful read
Review: this is my first and last read of fairstein. a major league strike out. the only worthy star is b/c i found the poe historical context to be mildly interesting. otherwise, it would have been better for me to stop reading after 250 pages so i could at least hold on to the belief that some semblance of plot might eventually unfold in the last 100 or so pages.so, why is this a not-read? where to begin? how about ridiculous plot developments, unnecessary characters, absurd, nonsensical twists, too many loose ends, silly, predictable conclusion. just finished it, and still annoyed that i wasted $30 and 2 days of time to read it. do yourself a favor and pick up any patterson or higgins clark instead.
