I thought I had read it all, but this is unique, compelling, and at times surprising. At one point I gasped aloud - scaring my husband. There are so many twists and turns - with important issues to discuss and think about along the way. I think this would be great for a book club to discuss how those issues are still relevant today.
By the end of the book, I was ready for the sequel. Can't wait!
