Idgie Says:
I will say that though this book had me in it's clutches by mid-point, I found it a little difficult to sink into at first. There's a large mystery surrounding Kate and events happening around her, but the chapters keep flipping between the Middle East, her early childhood and an interrogation room at the police station - all giving tiny glimpses of why she's a personal wreck with strong leanings toward PTSD, but none latching you into what exactly is the issue.
It starts to clarify about 1/3 of the way into the book - and then POW.
The book takes a total 180 turn and brings out a scenario you would not have imagined. It turns into a train without brakes from there and keeps you on high alert until the very last page.
I really enjoyed and was shocked by the second half of the book, but did not enjoy how much the first half dragged out for me. Again, a review is just a personal opinion.
