Anne Mey It was an easy read but the story wasn't typically interesting i mean we follow this character who is trying to frame his enemy and he describes everything that happens to him even though we already know he is acting in order to reach the big guy.
The story of the girl seems uninteresting and the fact that she's useful during the trial does nothing to improve her character.
I had zero connection to the main character I didn't feel compassion at whole and it's just him and a cumulation of shady characters who are playing double games all the times so it got boring.
I get that it's a new way to tell a spy story but I didn't enjoy it.
At least the style was simple enough so I read it fairly quickly.
