♥♥♥♥♥ |
Not one of her strongest.
|
| As always Jance writes fluidly and enticingly, with engaging characters, and some very evocative descriptions of landscapes. Unfortunately, this book is marked by three weaknesses. First, the technique of combining two points of view, corresponding to two different protagonists, is a tricky one and Jance does not avoid the danger of repetition which does not advance the story, Second, the immediate villain's skill in handling a highly toxic substance is implausible, as is both his recruitment to commit the crime and his actions. This is made worse by the very shaowy nature of the movers behind the crime. Finally, the romantic element developed does not correspond at all well to the poersonalities and values of the characters as developed. My recommendation is that one is better to try one of Jance's other books -- though if you are hooked already, you will probably want to try this one anyway. |
