An okay book. It has its flaws. Maybe it's just me not comprehending but there were more  than a few times where the prose was confusing. Timelines on deaths were jumpy at times in that a character is said to have died months to years later but would still be mentioned as living in the next paragraph. 

I suppose this is another book in which I loved the promise of the premise more than I did the actual book.
