Thank you to Doubleday books for a Netgalley of this book. 

I really enjoyed the plot and the characters of the story. There were quite a few, but once you settled on all of them it was fine. The writing switched characters every chapter. You must understand that the chapter is present day, then a flashback, and then back to present day. It is an odd writing style for so many characters, but once you got used to the style it was good. 

I find Bohjalian's writing to be a slower pace overall, but detailed and the research was obvious. 

Definitely enjoyed.
