From the beginning, this book was a little hard for me to get into. The ability of the author to instill discomfort and anxiety in her readers is a true measure of her craft, but it was almost off-putting as I found it hard to really stay engaged in the story. About half way through the story really picks up and I couldn't put it down! While I was able to figure out the mastermind behind the tradgey, I didn't really feel the ending was rewarding.
