Called it on the incest.
Very disturbing read, but very compelling and well-devised.
Daphne's poor family. Those poor women.
Edit: 3 and a bit years later I re-read it and I fell into the same trap as last time. There's something about a Rowe/Rodda that sets a galloping pace to finish it because of all these horrible people, only one of them could have done it.
And every time, she forges such a complex journey - mostly mental, there's not a great deal of action in this one - that I usually end up swearing at the book.
Which is what, I presume, she wants.
I'm finding it impossible to get the fifth book, but it's nice to know there's one surprise left in the world.
