Entertaining
A real page-turner! (if that's possible for an audio book!)
Good Storyline
The storyline is fun for the most part. The facts and events are completely realistic. But a single NYPD detective being able to afford a full time nanny and vacations for his 10 kids seems completely unrealistic in this economy. But I find the copycating of famous murders and bombings fun and interesting. Overall I enjoyed this book and recomend it to anyone between the ages of 16 and 40.
Cut the filler
There is an interesting storyline built around the crime spree which could have been developed much more. Instead, we get 40% filler of a boring home-life romance with the nanny. There is interesting character development about the antagonist and his crime agenda, but (despite the misleading title) there is no actual suspense until the very last of the story.
Do people actually believe that a very attractive nanny can't wait to hop into bed with this Cassanova detective old enough to be her father?
