I’m sorry to say that this was one of those books that found me looking at the time remaining and hoping it was almost over. I had high hopes since I love detective stories, especially with a woman lead but the story never really took off. The entire time, the narrator sounded like someone who was on the verge of falling asleep but still trying to talk, or someone who keeps lip and mouth movements to a bare minimum while speaking, and there was very little fluctuation in tone. It was hard to differentiate between any of the characters. Ugh.
