Title: Worthless story, worthless characters, worthless read
Review: This rates as one of the worst books I've read in a while. What showed promise in the first couple chapters as a good whodunit quickly turned into a story that was totally implausible, involving characters I cared nothing about, and that includes the grieving brother of the murder victim. The epilogue could not have been less credible. It didn't help that there were many annoying inaccuracies about the legal system that could have been corrected with minor research. All in all, the only saving grace is that this book was a quick read, with short chapters that one could complete at a stop light. At least I didn't waste that much time. Unfortunately, I did spring for a new hardback. Borrow the book or buy a used copy.
