5.0

Holy shit, I LOVED this book. An amazing combination of thoughtful, sophisticated, reflective writing and completely gripping, sometimes verging on lurid, but never-over-the-top plot. I haven't read a psychological suspense story this good since The Talented Mr. Ripley. Absolutely could not put it down, and can't believe I had never read it until now!
