Listen I am I fan of this author, I grew up with his books. But this book almost led me on… It was like getting a peanut butter and jelly sandwich without the peanut butter, or going to a bed and breakfast without the breakfast.I was on vacation and had no other book with me so I had to stick with it, and I will say every 50 pages or so there is a good juicy twist. But so many other books from the author have better and more interesting twist. For example, the treasure hunters series was so good and I read the whole thing in like two days.
