I was very hooked with this story but it got increasingly frustrating when the mystery and unanswerable questions kept popping up and no explanations were found, not even a little bit. I shouldn't be surprised after all bc I know this is how DJM writes but jeez, does he have to follow the same formula ALL THE TIME?! It feels like cheating. Also I don't believe for a second that Quinn, Feit and Captain Granger are dead . If you know DJM's writing like I do, you know it's true. Despite its bunch of flaws there were moments that shined and I'll be sticking around for book 2.
