Shane Turnbull receives a mysterious phone call from a stranger which leads to devastation. In order to cover up one crime, Shane commits many many more. I was hooked from the beginning of this book.
It appears that once a person makes a terrible mistake, he will do almost anything not to be discovered, even if that means committing several more. However, the more things he tries to do to avoid detection the harder it will be to recover if his crimes are discovered.
His problems quickly multiply and become completely out of control. I couldn't wait to get to the end of the book to discover the consequences of his actions and to see if he is ever discovered.
It was a little bit difficult for me to understand because the story takes place in England, and the some of the language is unfamiliar. Other than the language issue at times, and that fact that the book was sometimes a bit dry, I really enjoyed this book.
