The blurb is very accurate for this book and it gives you all you need to know about it. Bill is paired up with a nasty man who everyone hates and the whole book is about him trying to figure out who his coworker really is and why he is so evil. Does he figure that out? Not really. The only character who had some sort of personality in this book was Bill, all the other characters for me were quite plain and not interesting. I am not a big fan of philosophy, I can digest it if it is well incorporated into the story, but in this case, it was an obvious transition to the philosophical parts and it just doesn’t work for me. So to conclude, for me this mixture of philosophy, crime, religion, supernatural and very detailed descriptions of trees and saws don’t work together, but if you into such topics, you might enjoy it.
