As a big fan of the show I was really looking forward to the implementation of a book, and I can only say that I am absolutely thrilled. Nancy Holder has managed that you can really enjoy the series, the book as a supplement. The characters are so well made that one to easily has the pictures while reading in mind. By "flashbacks" in the book, referring to actions in the series, this impression is reinforced. The book has really everything that I also love the series. An exciting story, drama, humor, friendship, love, loyalty, criminological serendipity and much more. If you like this combination will also love the book, if he does not know the series. I would recommend it and am looking forward to the second and third band.
