Not her best

This book was very introspective to the point that it bogged down the story. I usually enjoy Dorothy Gilman’s stand-alone novels more than her Mrs. P novels because they’re deeper explorations but this was deeper than I found enjoyable.

Disappointed

I also really enjoyed the other books by this author but the main character in this one was a bummer. Plus the ending itself was sub par. Oh well.

slow but good

Not a typical espionage thriller, but a good, introspective book. not action packed. This sounds more negative than i intended, I enjoyed it a lot .

Story was such a wonderful surprise

This one is apply named. Quite a trip that reminded me of the best parts of myself and those around me. Slow to start for a good reason.

dark but uplifting.<br /> <br />

seemed repetitious in the beginning, but finally I saw the light, just like Michelle. Her strength was uplifting.

Very Satisfying Ending

I enjoyed this book. I really liked the main character and admired her courage. After reading some of the other reviews that stated disappointment with the ending, I was surprised at how satisfying it actually was. Perhaps they were hoping for blood and gore.

Mind Blown!

Dorothy Gilman is (was) such a talented writer. This book is incredibly well written. If you are into psychology and self analysis, this is an amazing psychological suspense novel.

Abrupt ending

I hate listening to long sections of over thinking and many trials only to have an abrupt ending

Dreary

I have enjoyed all of Gilman ‘s books so far, but this one was dreary and unsatisfying. So much self analysis…

Incomplete

I liked the story but the end left me wanting more. It just seemed incomplete to me.
