So far, one of my favorite books! The story is gripping and tense. The only challenge with the book is that there are many flashbacks that happen instantly, and it can be tricky to keep up with whether what you are reading is the present or past. But once you start to get the feel for her writing, you can start to tell when you have entered a flashback. It is one her most well written and powerful works.
