The character telling the story changes with each chapter, making it very difficult to track the plot. I'm all for feminism: Equal rights in education, employment, housing. This goes beyond that to painting all men as pigs. Unfortunately for this book, the heroine keeps making bad decisions. The ultimate insult to the readers is the ending, which is the literary equivalent of the world exploding. Everybody loses. No satisfactory resolution to the conflict. I have been reading for over fifty years, and this is the worst book I have ever read. This is especially disheartening given how good the Spellman books were. The only explanation I can come up with is that the author suffering some trauma that has left her broken and bitter. I pray that she gets counselling to restore her to good mental health.
