Surprisingly, I really didn’t care for this. This is the first book in the Eve Duncan series I’ve read, but I don’t think missing that first book is why I didn’t like it. I just didn’t relate to Eve, and maybe my brain kept wanting her to be Eve Dallas. All of her relationships with other people seemed awkward. I also expected the forensic sculpting to be a larger part of the story. I won’t bother with the rest of this series.
