Disclaimer - I did not read the first two books in the series, so I feel like I was missing something during the entire book. It seemed like the author was giving a go at some character development, but I couldn't quite grab on since I missed all the drama that had happened in the first two books.
I hesitate to give it any stars at all because perhaps I would have liked it more if I knew what had been going on behind the scenes.
As far as mystery novels go though, this was disappointing. It dragged on and on (probably because the author was trying to build characters) and I had a really hard time getting through the book. I had to pause and go read another book, and then come back to it in order to finish it.
