Could have been a contender

The author started with an original and intriguing story line and cast of characters, but it all went south pretty quickly. The "suspense" was a joke. When it's patently obvious to the reader/listener just exactly who the snake is while the ace investigator and the victim miss every blatant clue, you can't call it a mystery. The author has a pleasing style, but the obtuseness of her characters killed it for me.

The narrator was just wrong, wrong, wrong for this book. He sounds too old and too much like every boring lecturer you ever had to listen to in college.
