This is a solid 3.5/5 for me. It was well-paced from beginning to end, and I was hooked at the first paragraph. Introduce the protagonist pick pocketing bitches? Hells yeah, she was bad ass from the start and all the way to the end! Only qualm about this book that I have is that too many of the characters seemed to fall flat as "evil" or "good," though only minor roles, so I'll give Victoria a break.
