A friend loaned me this book. I was intrigued from the start. As some Amazon reviewers noted, the author writes in the present tense which isn't typical. Some Amazon reviewers also thought the author was overly descriptive of things and I would concur--after a while, it became annoying. The chapters also jump from the early 70s to the present and back and they're also written from different characters' point of view which can be confusing. One of the characters identity is revealed near the end--I guessed--as did others--who this person was a couple chapters before the big reveal. There was also a surprising twist at the end. I would read another of Eve Chase's books.
