overall the book is well written and definitely engaging, but I thought towards the end it was a bit rushed. it left some things unanswered and I didn't much enjoy the 'twist', but still worth a go.

I can't understand the negative reviews. Now I have never been easily pleased by books, my attention goes else where, pontificating authors lose my interest. Now this is dark and witty, and frankly lives out fantasies we probably all have but don't admit to. Narrated beautifully with convincing character. Love it.

Very dark, very funny ignore the bad review, if you like black humour and sarcastic writing then get this, a very good novel well read.
