I'm generally a very forgiving reader. I'll often miss huge plot holes, suspend my disbelief for the sake of a good story, and miss the major mistakes other more observant readers point out with glee. Let's call me an "experiential reader". If you write so that I enjoy it, I don't actually want to be too critical, because I am filled with admiration that you wrote a book. But here there was something not quite right with the experience. It was a great story, and the pages turned with enviable speed, but somehow I wasn't quite as immersed as I could have been.
A satisfying ending, and loads of suspense was created, but as I said - not a complete reading experience.
3.5 stars.
