The protagonist immediately comes across as something of a cold fish. Is this intentional? I haven't read enough to decide yet. She appears to dislike her partner, whom she disdainfully describes as somewhat self-centered and therefore dull-witted. If this is so, then why should she spend so much time talking about him? Who cares? I don't. I haven't delved deeply enough yet to get to the meat of the story, but so far amn't impressed. I am of course biased by the writing style. I love some stories that start out slowly, but they draw me in nonetheless because they are rich in description and color.This story starts out slowly, and I'm praying it will pick up the pace before I fall asleep. My "yes" recommendation is for those who like Moore's style of writing.

A very compelling story that revolves around family relationships. The dialogue is eloquent and keeps the plot driving forward. For a murder mystery, the climax of solving the crime was somewhat lackluster. Overall, would recommend.

Good read! The composition is written differently than most. Very easy to read. Though it switches from present to past you know in advance where you are...

I loved her writing style. The book opened my eyes to some perspectives I never considered. I always enjoy an unpredictable book with realistic endings
