Good book, wonderful characters, interesting situations, lots of suspense. I personally have a background in psychiatry and had some problems with the reactions of various folks to the situations in which they are placed...especially toward the end when the pace becomes more rapid.
It is about Delia, a young lady raised by her Dad whose two best friends are guys she grew up with. The tale revolves around her alleged kidnap by her father (from her mother who had custody) 28 yrs. ago when she was 4.Her father, Andrew gets jailed for his crime even tho in Arizona where he is jailed, what he did would no longer be considered a crime. Sooo ignore the shaky premises and enjoy the fiction!
