Barbara S. (AuntBarbara) reviewed The Executor on 5/15/2011

Didn't care for this book, as well written as it is. Other reviews say it is a stunning novel of psychological suspense. I don't know where the "suspense" was in this novel, the events were tragic and entirely predictable. I was completely not sympathetic to the main character, an intelligent but useless Harvard graduate student. The main characters were one dimensional and all headed for doom. The only character I liked was Alma, the wealthy benefactor, and could empathize with her dilema and depression and her need to find intelligent conversation. Not a lot to think about here, just a ride along to a depressing story.
