My Review
Rating: 10/10
I put this book on my list because of an obscure and possibly meaningless reference to the LOST television series.
This novel was very well written and kept my interest riveted for about 3/4 of the book. I have to admit that the last part of the novel was anti-climatic for me. I was interested in wanting to know where the author was going with this but by the end I was not as riveted by the mystery – just wondering what was going to happen. Now the strange thing, I’m not sure how it ended. My wife says she’ll read it and let me know.
Surprised that I gave it a 10/10? Me too. It was compelling and not many books can compell me like that.
