As I've said before, I'm not great at figuring out mysteries, and that's not why I read them. This means that I'm usually disappointed if I can immediately see the major plot point. I immediately saw the major plot point here. I enjoyed reading it well enough, but I thought that the story would have been stronger if it remained ambiguous. The ending could have kept the reader in a state of confusion while still showing what was about to befall the protagonist, which is distressing enough whether it's warranted or part of a conspiracy.
