Without giving away anything specific or revealing (as some other reviewers do...grr) I will say that I was really able to get into this book. A few parts are pretty unbelievable, and lots of loopholes that don't make much sense, but it was still interesting. I was able to think of the characters as people, not just letters on pages. So when it did not end the way I thought it should, suffice it to say, I was VERY let down. I wanted to throw the book across the room. So either a sequel is on the way or this was drawn out hundreds of pages (370 to be exact)to only end in about two paragraphs. Very anti-climatic and disappointing. If I would have known it was like that, I probably wouldn't have started it.

Lost and Found, another work of hers, was much better.
