In a word: gripping. This one had me from page one all the way to the end. Read it in almost one sitting. Only took a break long enough to sleep for a few hours!
Like my first Solomon book, there's a cop in this one. Though I don't think Ray is quite the hunk that One Deadly Sin used to keep us turning the pages, Gillian was a gal to watch. She was strong, yet vulnerable-- stubborn, yet yielding when necessary. She had a past that she thumbed her nose at rather than hiding from, and in an interesting way: photography.
I loved the plot. It's got enough differences in it that it didn't seem ordinary. I actually expected more from the Ray/Gillian relationship to happen during the story, but this really focused on finding Gillian's boogeyman. She was definitely the prime character in this one and I though very well developed. That is on of Solomon's strong capabilities. She does a fantastic job making them real.
Overall, another good one! Headed to PBS to find another Solomon book. Can't wait to read them all!
