2.5 stars. I skim-read this as soon as I realized it had a substantial suspense plot that wasn't really alluded to in the book blurb. Other than that, I had some issues with the portrayal of Morgan. While I like the fact that Wilder shows him with a playful sense of humor towards those who underestimate him and aren't able to see past his autism (the toothpick trick is a scream), I still felt like he functioned mostly as a learning tool for Grant to help him Learn to See instead of a fully formed character.

This is my first book by this author and I have a feeling she is just not my cuppa, but for those with more interest in intrigue/suspense YMMV.
