Perhaps I only noticed because I was listening, but one of the characters is consistently described as "the girl" (she has a name, which is used about as often as calling her the girl) and having "narrow brown eyes". Other than a few pet peeves on specific writing ticks, this was a favorite and only docked 0.25 stars. I predicted who the murderer would be, but it didn't detract from the enjoyment for me. However, be aware if you've read many mysteries that the foreshadowing might be a little heavy-handed. Still, the motivation is remarkable and totally compelling and it's worth reading even for veterans of the mystery genre.
