*Plot interest* In the last chapters, motive is revealed. It ended up being a long series of statements, but nothing especially probing. Perhaps that's "punchy", but I just felt it didn't work. *Character development*: the author tries to develop character, but the style seems to be very short sentences and equally short developments. I strongly recommend listening to the audio sample, in case, as it was to me, this is deeply irritating to you. It didn't sound right, and felt like a London accent trying to be geordie. However, she never pronounces her letter t. *Narration*: the accent wasn't geordie, and occasionally twanged posh. I think this was because I didn't really understand why I disliked it so much. Unusually, I never got into this book, finding it tedious at best, and yet I still read to the rather than rather than returning.
