There are mystery books for readers who crave a mind-bending, gripping mystery that combines clever twists and turns with a deep exploration of themes such as redemption and the power of justice. The story's premise is interesting, but I think I prefer watching newer British mysteries to reading them.

This was an incredibly unique book, very creative the way it was told. But I spent the majority of it horribly confused. I listed to the audio version of that, and perhaps that was my mistake - this might be a book you need the hardcopy of so you can flip back and re-read sections.
