  • Plot- or character-driven? Plot
  • Strong character development? No
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

3.5

Lots of excellent imagery, Western touches a la Larry McMurtry. I find the characters a little bit one dimensional but the narration is gorgeous and Cronin is great at maintaining suspense. A page turner.
