Having said that, I found the plot was different and interesting, the twists and turns were great and kept me guessing, wrongly most of the time, and the sense of tension was good. The characters were ok but no one really stood out for me and I felt they were a little unforgettable and I found the descriptive writing style became a tad tedious and I admit to skim-reading some parts. This is what let it down for me in the end - I got a little bored but persevered and so pleased I did because the ending was great.
I may not have enjoyed this book quite as much as I would have liked but it certainly will not put me off reading Emma's books in the future.
Thank you Orion Publishing Group and NetGalley for my copy in return for an honest and unbiased review.
