AAAAAAAAAAAAAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHI love this book. It's a real shame that so little people know about it. The premise actually reminded me about Hannibal but Albarino and Hestal are very different from those two. The book has a couple funny moments but majority of it is serious. It's not really a love story.Spoiler
It's a story about how an artist moulds his creation to its final form. Hestal himself admits that he loves Albarino but the forensics scientist loves Hestal the way a creator loves his greatest creation.
[collapse]There are some twists and turns that blew my mind. It's not the main story that I love the most but the small things. The devil is in the details :) Spoilerpor ejemplo, George Robb's girlfriend, Blanca, doesn't kill to avenge his death. We all knew the BAU already suspected George so in actuality, it didn't matter to the normal person if a evidence was faked. However, George was enjoying the cat and mouse chase. He didn't care if he died as a result, so long as the game was fair. But it wasn't. Evidence was planted. He got caught without making a mistake, so Blanca avenges not his death, but for the insult he faced in being unable to play a fair game.
[collapse]I also love Olga.All in all, I want to name my firstborn after the author. ≪3<3<3Edit: the author has uploaded the novel on ao3 so you can go check it out there if you want to MTL it. Give some kudos cause she really deserves it.
