Story4.5 out of 5 stars 334
A series of apparently random murders draws amiable, old-school Detective Mick Matlock into a world of sex, politics, reality TV and a bewildering kaleidoscope of opposing identity groups. Lost in a blizzard of hashtags, his already complex investigation is further impeded by the fact that he simply doesn’t ‘get’ a single thing about anything anymore. Meanwhile, each day another public figure confesses to having ‘misspoken’ and prostrates themselves before the judgment of Twitter. Begging for forgiveness, assuring the public 'that is not who I am'.

Good plot and a suspenseful finish.

Loved the narration. Story was great but I found it became slightly predictable. Hash tags and an exaggerated take on Politcal Correctness annoyed a bit but successfully aligned me with the main character. Slightly funny and very entertaining.
