Right off the bat, I was turned off by the stilted language, which seemed designed to keep me at arm's length. It made it hard to connect to the story or the narrator. That being said, the plot is intriguing and the scene of the body exploding on the surgeon's table certainly makes for interesting reading! I'm not sure I'd be interested in reading more, but I'm sure this will be a good book for others.
