I'm a fan of a good mystery...and this one didn't fit the bill. To begin with, the dust jacket copy led me to believe something other than what transpired in the book. When the description says, "...And when someone close to them winds up dead, Harris and Matthew..." I expect the decedent to be a friend of theirs, not one of the characters named. Also, the author begins the book writing from Matthew's perspective in the first person, but later in the book switches to writing in first person from Harris' perspective. That's confusing, to say the least. I did finally finish the book, but it certainly wasn't a "gotta read it NOW!" type of book. I had no trouble putting it down, but did have trouble picking it up again.
