" I liked this a lot at the beginning, when Arkady first starts to investigate the murder of his friend/informant. But slowly, and gradually, I lost interest, as the book jumped to Germany and a love lorn Arkady mopes about. By the end, I was done, and wished this book was 70 or so pages shorter. But, I like Arkady and I'm glad I read it. "
