The only reason I chose to read this book is because it is set in the Chernobyl area. In that respect, it certainly met my expectations. The details given about this desolate region were stunning. However, I have this expectation that mysteries will have a shocking twist at some point, and that never really happened. The relationships between the characters seemed "choppy" (for lack of a better word), in that the people would be neutral one moment, and the next there'd be this tremendous love/hate sentiment without a lot of development to bridge the gap. I'd read it again though, if for no other reason than to go back over those awesome descriptions of the radioactive wasteland.
