A thriller with such a traditional happy ending certainly stands out.
The first half of this book does require some getting through and is very slow placed for a thriller. Following that, the second half initially had me very confused.
However, once the pace quickened and the characters (rather than the plot) made sense it was a very twisty thriller I didn’t want to put down.
The plot line itself isn't unique, and the book actually makes reference to that, but it’s very well executed.
