Review: A Quick, Fun Whodunnit

This was exactly how I like a murder mystery - short and sweet. It was sort of like watching an hour-long police drama, which is the perfect length for a quickly engaging and well-written whodunnit. It wasn't perfect, and some of the tropes were a bit dramatic or poorly executed, but on the whole, it was particularly what a person would expect from a quick read in a genre that has been written in for decades. However, I like how it had an updated, modern feel to it, including the Internet and cybersex chatrooms, etc. There were some unexpected moments as well, and the twists that one would normally expect in any mysterious murder thriller. While the writing left a bit to be desired, the story was entertaining and kept me reading from start to finish. If never putting a book down is any indication of quality, than this closed door murder mystery is excellent!
