This is almost a 5 star book. If only it had been a standalone. Then again, I'm intrigued by the promise of the epilogue.
It is unfair to reveal much about this one -- so many puzzle pieces to put together. I don't want to ruin the process for anyone. Suffice it to say that this is a suspenseful, engrossing literary thriller that really does bring to mind The Handmaid's Tale and Ishiguro's Never Let Me Go, but with a kick-ass heroine. There is just enough familiarity to the scenario to stay connected, but I was never quite sure what was really going on until the end.. Loved it.
