Was an accidental read, grabbed this looking for the fat vampire series. Was confused when I started it since the premise seemed very close.
Regardless, I finished and it wasn't terrible

Andy Weir has concocted a wickedly clever tale in “James Moriarty Consulting Criminal.” This book is what happens when you cross a mastermind villain with a penchant for consulting and a rap sheet longer than my TBR list.
Our titular character, James Moriarty, is a devilishly charming gentleman, always a step ahead of everyone else. Weir captures the essence of what makes Moriarty so enticing and wraps it up in a cunning narrative that leaves you begging for more. The only crime this book commits is being too short – I found myself wanting to delve deeper into the twisted mind of this enigmatic anti-hero.
If you're looking for a quick and wickedly fun read, “James Moriarty Consulting Criminal” is the guilty pleasure you've been waiting for. Just be prepared to want more, for Moriarty's dark charm is as inescapable as his diabolical schemes.
