The quote on the back of the book by Publishers Weekly in describing the author T.L. Hines states “Hines dialogue is darkly funny as he explores the depths o the humans desire for authenticity….Fans of breathless suspense that’s a little off center will enjoy” is very similar to my thoughts of this book. Personally, it is a lot darker book than that of what I usually read. However, the suspense did keep me desiring to read it as I quickly finished it in 2-3 days.
The story is about 4 intertwined characters who each have a major setback in life ranging from amnesia, cancer, drug use, and assassin. The book is set up in 4 distinct “stanzas” in which each character’s story unfolds. As you read through each stanza you begin to see how the unknowingly intertwined characters are involved with each other.
