The storyline moved slow with the developing of character background. It kept my interest but some of the background was repeated more than once throughout the book and it wasn't necessary. I enjoyed her previous book "Speak Softly, She Can Hear" much better.

I liked the premise of the story, it was interesting. I have read two books by this author now and I think I just don't enjoy her writing style. I find it at times repetitive and rambling. There were some twists in the story line, but if you pay the least bit of attention you will see them coming a mile away.

This story was good...a little slow. I enjoyed her previous novel more.
Helpful Score: 1
I really enjoyed this book. The characters were very interesting and there were twists and turns in the plot that made the book impossible to put down.

The story's premise was better than its execution. Mysterious circumstances surrounding the death of a young mother, unknown identity of orphaned child's father, family secrets uncovered about another dead family member. I could have done without the incest overtones and brother-sister skinny dipping.
