Entertaining reading, and some unpredictable plot points. I'm not talking about the true identity of Charlie Mayne, which I guessed from the start, but rather the direction the John Voss character was taken. First he's introduced in a way that suggests he's a genius waiting to blossom, then he turns into a homicidal maniac. That, or I'm too predisposed to think good of characters like Voss, which is a scary thought.
