Slight spoiler: Slow tension built throughout the story. I didn't feel as if the tension was really strong enough to pull me through the book. The answers I wanted I didn't receive. Too many holes in the plot. With all of the description given to each character, I don't feel as if the characters were fully developed. The ending: Not all of the character story lines were wrapped up. Raping a woman only to reveal she "loved" him? The ending didn't make sense and was just for shock value. What exactly did she "love" about him. He was just like her? Sad. This had potential.
