I really enjoyed this is was a face paced twisty thriller that borrowed heavily from classics such as HG Wells The Time Machine and the rules of the Hollywood summer blockbuster genre. The rules of Hollywood being, make it gory, keep it fast paced and keep them guessing; oh and the boy always gets the girl no matter how mismatched they are.

It was, however, some of the "Holywood style action thriller elements that I didn't enjoy. Making sexual violence to women a sensationalised element of the story makes me uncomfortable. The mismatched lovers didn't work for me and I just couldn't buy into them. The main twist was the one I hope the author was not going to choose because it was obviously the person whom Hollywood would have chosen and to be honest doesn't make sense.

Still, I would recommend this to someone wanting to read a face paced action adventure story beside a pool or something. It's meant to be a face paced ride that you don't think too much about.
