I am in the grey zone on this novel.
There is nothing wrong with this novel, but there is a lot thats just not right about it. It just didn't fit in with the other Ketchum books that I have read. I love the Dead River series so I can't say that I am not disappointed. This book has too much shock factor and not enough of a base. The characters where just not round enough, I couldn't relate, didn't get to know them. Found out mid way through the book that the setting is not Dead River wish there had been more about that...

Overall this feels like a publisher pleaser, written to fill the final spot in the trilogy without being a brain child of the author. Words slapped on paper :(
