I was disappointed by this book, though I did finish it and it improved in the last third of the novel. I couldn‘t feel much sympathy for either the narrator or the detective, who was given a set of character traits that were two-dimensional. The dialogue between narrator and detective consisted of the detective showing off his erudition and the narrator expressing ignorance, like a cut-price Holmes and Watson, which became really irritating.

Less mystery, more random conversation. Mystery wasn‘t really a mystery.
