"A real page-turner. So much of a page-turner that I turned some of them without fully understanding all of the intrigues, and it's entirely possible that some of the intrigues didn't make a darn bit of sense. Still, I always give props to a book that makes me keep reading to find out what happened, and this one accomplished that."
"I put it down, bored. I picked it up again - and on p.116 here's the line that convinced me I had something better to do "She was too young and too beautiful to be taken so soon and so viciously.""
"I'm not usually one to pick up a murder mystery, but this one looked good so I took a chance. And I'm grateful I did; it was really good! There was definite suspense and I had no idea who was the bad guy until the story told me. I would definitely recommend this book."
"I really like the novels that Lisa See writes. As the back cover of this book states "Mixing history, myths, and current events" plus a bit of mystery makes a very interesting and hard to put down story. This is the third novel that I have read with inspector Lisa Hulan and her husband attorney David Stark as the protagonists."
