This book was in a dollar sale at my local half-price books, so I picked it up, expecting a good quick read. I was saddened by the completely flat and dull plot and the utter violence. All in all, a thumbs down for me.

My daughter read this two years ago and she's been harassing me to read it ever since! It was a fantastic novel, exciting and took turns I didn't spot! I really enjoyed it. A quick, dark enjoyable novel.
