5.0
When I picked up the ebook, I was unaware that this was the 6th book of a series.
The characters were properly introduced and although I had not yet read the previous books, there was never confusion or missing information.
This novel was my introduction to Archer's work, and I found it to have an excellent plot. Characters were well developed and the use of foreshadowing gave just enough information to raise several a ha moments.
I will be finishing the remaining books shortly.

Too many unbelievable "twists". This series should have concluded after the 5th book!

Think Jeffrey started to run out of ideas with these books, some of the storylines are getting a bit ridiculous and it’s annoying how things always go right for the Clifton family in the end. Want to finish the series though having read all the others and only one more!

sonham's review against another edition

Natürlich ist es schwer, eine Familienchronik zu bewerten, wenn man bei Buch Nr. 6 der Serie einsteigt.
Aber ich war überrascht, dass es mir nicht schwergefallen ist, in die Geschichte hineinzukommen. Zwar sind mir nicht alle Hintergründe klar, doch es werden eigenständige Ereignisse in den Leben der einzelnen Charaktere erzählt, die alle für sich spannend und interessant sind.
Die Figuren sind facettenreich, wenn auch ein klein wenig überzogen.
Alles in allem eine Serie, die ich durchaus von vorn beginnen könnte.
