This is a really good book - beyond the 3.5 rating I gave it - the writing is crystal clear and engaging and the story is very interesting. I was disappointed in the non-chronological structure. It bounces back and forth from the past to the near present for much of the story, and to little purpose in my view. That jumping def hindered the momentum of the story and had me pulled out of the narrative numerous time. I think if it was told "in order" this book could've been a near 5 for me.
