The premise of this book was good and I was interested by the overall story, HOWEVER, everything else just annoyed to the point of putting this down (which doesn't happen often).

BADNESS*:
Grammar: Then/Than, etc; basic elementary-my-dear stuff.
Improbable character knowledge: Author writes as though a common investigator knows more than he should without explaining how or why or giving any credentials. This may be solved later, but in order for the reader to believe an author, give some background first.
Implausible scenario linking: Sort of spoilery, but how could I spoil something that's in the 1st chapter? Somehow seeing a beautiful dead girl in a coffin, along with a hanging person in a closet somehow reminds him of the supposed Zodiac killer of when he was a teen. So now it's the dead Zodiac killer on the loose.
Unconvincing emotional attachment: Telling the story of the main character's aforementioned Zodiac sighting as a teen made me laugh at how horribly unrealistic the relationship between cop and partner was. It feels like a 15 year old wrote this.
Weird sentence structure: And not in that "I'm a poet" kind of way. More of an "I'm a writer?" kind of way.

And other things but I only got about 5 chapters in and I couldn't take it anymore.

*Some of this could be Kindle formatting, but a majority of it is probably not.

Anyway, this is bad and I don't understand how people can get over everything after grammar (I can forgive that occasionally since the person could just have a bad editor or not have, like...a computer). Also, I don't like writing negative reviews unless I feel extremely loathsome of a particular thing and don't understand the hype...sooooo, sorry?
