Review
I found this to be quite compulsive reading as strand after strand of the intricate web of the story is revealed. The author cleverly sends the reader in different directions and I was second guessing constantly until things eventually fell into place.
The characters are well drawn and although the story is told from several points of view, every one is separate and distinct. I also loved the idea of the timeline taking place over one day, with the odd foray into the past so bring the whole thing together. It was a great piece of plotting.
I read it in one day, when I also had several other commitments, and I can usually gauge how much I enjoyed a book by the speed at which I eat it - this one was gobbled up!
