This was my first book by this author. It was not bad at all, there are slow bits in the beginning which will have you wanting to turn pages just to see if the story gets better. Let me tell you it does it really does! I liked all the characters I however found lily to be a little strange. I think once this book gets going it is one that you will not be able to put down. ( )

I wanted to like the book. The premise itself isn't bad but there was not one redeemable character in the book. It makes it difficult to enjoy a book when you don't like any of the characters. I actually thought the book was over at one point and checked to see how much time left and it said six HOURS. I wasn't sure what could be covered in that time. I did finish as I was curious if anyone would be redeemed and what was happening but I definitely would not recommend or read again. ( )

Late to the game but wanted to chip in agreement with the offness of this book! The epilogue summed up all that was wrong with it for me. Lily would think something kind about someone/herself. And then go off on a tangent about good vs evil, justice shades of gray etc. Over and over and over. The author couldn’t even let Ross remain decent and had to create an unbelievable past for him. I wanted to believe the storylines for each character but thought it jumped the shark at dozens of points throughout. ( )

Bello, un buon thriller psicologico che mi è piaciuto molto.
La vicenda si svolge in un lungo arco temporale di oltre quindici anni e i segreti e le bugie che aleggiano e si celano dietro ogni personaggio saranno i protagonisti indiscussi dall’inizio alla fine.
Una storia dove ogni personaggio si disvela poco alla volta nei suoi lati positivi e negativi e che, pur nella sua lentezza e meticolosità narrativa, riesce ad avvincere ed intrigare mantenendo costantemente accesa l’attenzione del lettore.
Effettive quattro stelle e mezzo.
