Where the Truth Lies by Rupert Holmes
3.0
positives: images of 70s were quite vivid. very absorbing plot and enjoyable to read.
negatives: ending was forced. a very agatha christie like scene where all is solved. though the book is handled in no way reminiscent of christie, the consecutive deaths and the unravelling of plot is like those not unlike many before. the scene where she cuffes herself to the faucet is almost done for the movie, which i haven't yet watched but think might use some of the almost cinematographic scenes in the book.
