IT'S OK

I liked this book but agree with other reviewers that the story is somewhat contrived and the characters unbelievable. I found Lydia irritating as I have no patience with characters who are not forthcoming with their emotions and issues which is frustrating and can bog down the story line. She was the only survivor of a horrific murder as a child but refused to discuss it with anyone then broke up with her boyfriend because he knew about it, knew who she was, but refused to bring it up to her. I also agree with a reviewer who was very critical of the epilogue which was nothing short of cheesy (a ghost hunter show on a Spanish speaking cable channel discussing the murder at issue in the story). All of that being said, I love a good mystery with a lot of twists and I didn't have this one figured out until the very end. It also kept me up late into the night reading so it's not all bad.
