Title: A John Grisham Knockoff
Review: This mystery is big, clunky, and tiresome. I think it's perfect for those who want to perfect the art of speed reading, because you can whip through the text and get to the plot without missing much of anything. There's loads of reflective thought that turns obsessive in a hurry, and boring and repetitive and irrelevant. I frankly thought this book was amateurish, but there's real glimmers of good writing here and there. You just never know when they're going to hit, and you have to work your way through so much blather that it's hardly worth the trouble. The characters aren't very interesting either. So what's to like? Not much.
