I wanted to like this book because it got good reviews but it just didn't do it for me. For me this was like 4 in-depth character studies. The characters were well drawn and detailed but I kept waiting for the connection between the four and the connection to the desk to become clear. It kind of does near the end but not in a very satisfying way and still very vague. While the characters were detailed as to their thoughts and feelings, sometimes it was too detailed and became tedious. I have two other books by this author on my bookshelves waiting to be read and I'll read them . . . but won't get another unless one of those really hits the mark.
