This was the biggest mess of a WMC book ever.

There was so much going on that I forgot about certain parts. Nothing felt completely fleshed out and nothing was interesting because it was all over the freaking place.

We start out with Lindsay going into labor and of course she can't just have a normal delivery eyeroll. Then there's a case of a woman getting shot in her car, a man who can predict future murders, a serial killer who wants to take Lindsay to the bodies he's buried, Lindsay's baby possibly being ill, Richie & Cindy's relationship woes, Claire's job misfortune, the kidnapping/murder case that Yuki is trying.

They just tried to shove too many things into one book and then rushed the ending after dragging everything out for the entire book. It was, by far, the worst WMC book I've ever read.

And while I'm on the subject....how does Yuki still have a job? Has she ever won a trial? Can she maybe take a case to trial that has been resolved? Where there's evidence besides circumstantial hearsay?

The most interesting part of the book was the professor who could predict the future. And that was resolved in two lines at the end as an afterthought and it still doesn't make sense.

Ugh. Worst. Book. Ever.
