The basic premise of the book is a surprise. The novel did not prepare this reader for the surprise. The writing style -- chapters of the novel told from various character's points of view either before or after the main event -- takes some getting used to. At the end of the book the writer comments that she sent it off to a publisher without submitting to an editor -- would that she had. It is a minor point, but there is a difference between ground and floor. Overall, we are going looking for another novel by Mary Kubica.
