I'm not necessarily a fan of mysteries or suspense, but I love Simpson's writing style. Heavy on dialogue, it always engages me, but somehow he manages to work in a lot of description and exposition without weighing the story down. But my favorite thing is how this book is intelligent without being pretentious. The clean, crisp style draws me in and I had trouble putting this book down.Lily is also a compelling character. Men fall in love with her all the time, and she thinks nothing of it. At the beginning of the story Kenny is one of those men, and Lily thinks she loves him too. But once her boss enlightens her as to Kenny's true character, Lily lets him go without a second thought or a wasted emotion. This is only a hint of what's to come, and what Lily is capable of. She seems to attract trouble, and if you like a good, exciting story with trouble to spare, then this book is for you!Highly recommended.
