I loved the structure of this book: there were so many pieces to put together, so many tiny elements of the story being incrementally revealed. Each and every scene has meaning, and nothing drags along in the story. So many characters, such complexity in each of them from their own perspectives, and also from the viewpoint of the other characters.
Like the protagonist, the plot starts out slowly and increases in pace until you hit the ending at a breakneck speed. The more we learn, the faster the plot moves along, so by the time you get to the last 50 pages you're frantically turning the pages to find out how things will end.
It's like a historical locked room mystery set in The Matrix. I'm really looking forward to reading more from this author.
SO well done.
