I am not afraid to admit that this book was over my head. Yet, this is not a good thing as it means that the story can't translate to all readers. In the beginning, as I was reading this book, I was willing to forgive this aspect and keep reading. This continued on for about a hundred pages and than I could not let it go. There was nothing to grab me and keep me intrigued in the story or the characters. The voices of the characters were monotone and as were their personalities...one note. This book really could have worked if it had translated better for all readers. Additionally, this story needed engaging characters. Plus, the intensity knob needed to be cranked up to twelve. They know not what they do but I do and I am done with this book.
