There's one chapter about the going's on in the 80's and 90's in Chelsea; then an up to date chapter about some members of the family, and then one about a very innocent member of the plot.
I find it hard sometimes to keep the interest going when there is a 2 chapter gap before the story continues again. I find it annoying.
Its a fairly gruesome story at times, but its quite predictable.
It's a good book and worth 4 stars, but so over-hyped by the publishers etc. Saying that, I will read the sequel, only because I want to find out about Phin.
