I am so disappointed! The last 100-150 pages is where this narrative falls apart for me.

(1) The disappearance of the son concludes in such a lackluster way when considering how complex the lead up was.

(2) The use of infidelity as a catalyst infuriated me. And we never get closure or a fully fleshed out explanation for this affair's existence. I hate when likeable characters are turned to complete trash when we learn they would willingly participate in infidelity.

SPOILER:

And the fact that it was the older sister, someone depicted as the only shining light in this book...I just can't see her doing that when she is also the one to introduce and encourage the match in the first place...make it make sense.
