** spoiler alert ** I really liked it in spite of: the first 50 pages were devoted to bringing a new reader up to date; the last 50 pages were devoted to describing in detail the landscape of the Scottish country side-several times; and Mr. Todd has chosen to leave us hanging. I will not say more...no spoiler really. I think maybe he thinks we won't buy the next book if he keeps us in suspense. It reminds of the serials at the movies when I was a kid 'Come back next week' or when you watch a TV show only for it to end with 'to be continued'. Otherwise, the mystery kept me reading. It is one of those books that you don't want to put down until you have it solved!
