Cyrus was interesting. I was fascinated by him. Although he's suffered, he also had a good childhood up until the murder of his family. I liked that he saw something of a kindred spirit in Evie. The relationship between them was strange as both tried to find their footing. But I really enjoyed how they worked together to solve the crime.
The crime itself was good. I liked how it all unfolded. I loved Lenny (the chief policewoman who rescued Cyrus as a child). I wish we had of got to see more of her. The mystery was somewhat predictable as the clues unfolded but there were a few surprises. This is much more a character driven story than plot, but the mixture of the two really worked for me.
I can't wait to read the next one and I was excited to find out that there will even be a third book in the series. That's how much I loved it. 4.5 stars, rounded up to 5.
