A Game for All the Family by Sophie Hannah

1.0

I would have loved more depth to the characters and an actual twist. This story was compelling enough for me to want to see how it ended, but once I got there I realized it may not have been worth the journey. Layers and layers of exposition and totally unrealistic behavior from characters. It would be nice to attribute some pieces of this to "magical realism," but the bits about intuition and premonition feel like a clunky plot device to move forward. An interesting idea with execution that could have been better.
