It’s an okay, easy read. The story is pretty formulaic, with the dual-history narrative providing a little flavour. The promising front half of the book was let down by the rushed paint-by-numbers act 2 and 3, and the dialogue (apart from Kitty’s) sounded wooden. It was obviously well-researched, and I enjoyed the premise, Jacob and Kitty.

Overall I feel the plot and characters weren’t interesting or twisty enough to sustain the length of the book.
