“The author may be better known for her historical fiction, but it's this contemporary tale that's a real stunner. New York, a missing woman, a seriously screwed family, politics, peyote...this novel has it all. But really, the less you know about the novel, the better, for there are true shocks and surprises. Keep your eye out for Milo, one of the most unforgettable characters I've ever come across. The 602 pages were read over the span of about five days, so my memory didn't hold up so well: `Who's that? Did we hear about that guy earlier in the novel and I've just forgotten?' The novel may warrant a reread to jog your memory, but it was the mystery itself that was the most intriguing part of the story - this is a good read.”
