fireye 's review for:

The Lioness by Chris Bohjalian

---

I am perplexed at the rave reviews (better than Agatha Christie?! Really?!) and overall unsatisfied with this book. I would read other books by this author as I enjoyed the style of writing and thought highly of the ability to describe a scene. But it wasn't enough for me to get why this story has hit so highly among so many. Someone read this so you can help me figure out what I don't get with this one.
