This was an ARC that I read through BookSirens. The story holds a lot of merit and does have an interesting plot. Our main character has a history in vine and that just so happened to be the main theme of the murders. However the main character comes across almost Gary Stu like as the only one who can piece the case together and get the bad guy. In other words it is pretty much like any run of the mill police story. I hope that should I continue to read this author, there will be more character development that explores the characters flaws other than just his boss not liking him.
