Publisher Description

New York Times best-selling author and Edgar Award winner Thomas H. Cook's atmospheric thrillers cut to the core of humanity's deepest fears. Here, Lucas Paige, a floundering middle-aged historian, reluctantly sits down with the woman he suspects was responsible for his father's murder decades before. As they drink, they open up about this seminal event and he discovers much of what he thought to be true is anything but.

    " This book reads the opposite of Tana French books for me: in this one, the author sets up the situation early on, and I felt like the whole book just dragged on as I rushed to get through to find out the ending. The ending was better than expected, but I still found this book frustrated. "

    " This book had a lot to say about how perceptions of events, people, and places can shape not only your so-called memories, but your dreams and even your life. It's only too true that things are not always what they appear to be. "

    " Read for bookclub. I enjoyed this book. Would some of you mystery readers read this and tell me exactly what you think happened??? We should have fun talking about this. "

    " this book compelled me to keep reading, fascinating unravelling of what a boy remembers of his father's death and his discussion (much later in life) with the woman he always blamed for it "

    " I listened to the audio version of this book. I hate it when male narrators do female voices in that annoying falsetto. I find it comical and have to remember that the dialog may not be humorous. As for the book, I thought the pay-off at the end wasn't good enough. "

    " An interesting book about a long conversation with the narrator and theperson he thinks is responsible for the murder of his father.Not gory.I just started and it's so mysterious. I can't wait to see what's happened. "

    " The conceit is interesting, and I liked how slowly different things were revealed by the narrator, but I wasn't into the writing overall, and I hated the ending. "

    " The suspense in this novel was palpable. The truth was revealed slowly as if the author were peeling an onion, revealing sucessive layers that added to the story. And the ending was not at all what I thought it would be. "

  • Overall Performance: 4 out of 54 out of 54 out of 54 out of 54 out of 5

    " Very nicely written and suspenseful as two people review the circumstances leading up to a tragedy in the past and in the process come to terms with the events. PW, in a starred review, calls it "an intellectual drama." "
