If the plot were less interesting this would be a one star review. It's a shame that a good idea was ruined by really bad writing. The author apparently doesn't have the faintest idea what commas are for, because they are used when they shouldn't be and are unfortunately lacking where they should be. Lack of commas results in run-on sentences that defy translation. Errors like &#34;could of&#34; instead of &#34;could've&#34; or &#34;could have&#34; are frequent, and the writing style is amateurish and annoying.I would like to excuse all this by the fact that the author was born in Europe and so came to English as a second language. But the biography indicates that a lot of writing has been done since then, so one would assume that a better grasp of the English language would have taken place at some time. My husband came to this country at the age of 40 with six languages in his grasp, and, although he is not an author, his writing (when he does it) is absolutely correct. Hmm. Maybe I should hand him a few plots and see what he can do with them. It couldn't be worse than this book.
