This is the second book I've read by this author, the Architect's Apprentice being the other one, and enjoyed this books so much more. A really unusual idea, with the first section of the book being the flashbacks of Tequila Leila's life in the 10 minutes and 38 seconds after her murder. All the characters are OTT and yet it works beautifully
