Well, this was THOROUGHLY enjoyable. Secret societies, an exclusive boarding school, two girls separated by 60 years, secrets, lies and extortion. This is one of those slow burning books, but I really enjoyed it. The two stories side by side was done brilliantly well. I thought they were so well written and you learned things without learning too much. Eva is a brilliant main character (and I also really loved Erik!). Underground bunkers and weird cult-esque political beliefs? Not for me, but a bloody brilliant story!!
