“as always with carol goodman, a complex plot and a setting that adds an extra 'character; to the story. this is the first one that had some supernatural elements, nothing distracting or out of place with either her style or the story. as is usual with her, the plot involves two different times that weave closer and closer together until the climax. in the beginning, i found it a little hard to keep track of all the characters in both time frames, which is essential with carol goodman because you have to understand their personalities and motivations to untangle the plot. still, i was dissapointed to get to the end before i'd gotten to the bookstore to get another by her.”
