OK--I'll freely admit that the only reason that I finished this book was because it was set in Minneapolis and because I wanted to see if it would get any better.
I knew from the beginning who the bad guy was, suspected the whole thing with Justin and wish that I knew more about these people from before. I thought this was the first in the series but maybe I am wrong....
While it did have one final twist that I didn't see coming, it was pretty standard. The letters intersperced drove me nuts since it was like "Just Tell the story already!" and don't go on and on about it. In my opinion that was the worst part of the book.
Won't waste my time with reading any more by this author unless I get terribly homesick. ( )
