Review
I couldn’t think how this compelling novel could have been made any better. I was hooked from the very beginning and just couldn’t put it down. It was simply mesmerising and an outstanding read. I did not see the conclusion coming and I found the story very haunting. The characters lived on with me long after I finished reading this.
I think I have discovered another favourite author, this book will be hard to top, for me, in 2014.
