Very disappointing from one of my favourite authors. Was a train wreak, sub plots, characters and totally unbelievable.
Don't bother wasting your time on this one, like I did

I liked it. It was interesting, if a little contrived. Not sure I’m really sold on the ending.

I've never read Lynda La Plante's books before and I'll be honest in the first couple of chapters I wasn't keen on her writing style. Although once the book got going I did really enjoy the story and couldn't put it down. It would have been a four star but I felt that by the end there were points that were unanswered or never really explained so it got a three star. Over all I really enjoyed the book but was disappointed in the ending.
