review 1: While some aspects of this book were a bit confusing and far-fetched, especially the parts about the Santera (priestesses of the Afro-Cuban religion), overall it caught and held my attention. Madeleine, as the main character, is a very human woman with flaws like all of us. The difference is that she is psychotherapist in the business of helping people solving their problems while she seems to have let too many of her own problems fester instead of dealing with them. As her background is slowly revealed, the reader discovers how complicated things really are and wonders how everything will resolve. While the ending left me cheering at the justice that was served it seemed a little easily wrapped up given everything that had happened previously.My favorite character was... more Rachel. She was an emotional train-wreck who had been through hell and didn't want anyone to get close to her now, and yet I just couldn't help but yearn for her to have a happy ending. As the layers of her life were revealed, why she acted like she did made more and more sense. I didn't quite understand the relationship between Rachel and Madeleine at the end of the book though. It was something that I wanted to know and understand that the writer didn't explain very well, especially after making their relationship a pivotal turning point of the book.
review 2: Bloodprint tells the story of Madeline. She had led an interesting life that spans the world. At age of 15, while living in Key West, she meets & falls in love with an older man, Forrest. After one night of passion, Forrest leaves her after learning her true age, but before learning that she is pregnant.I am struggling with how much information to share with you without giving away too much of the story. Many years have passed & Bloodprint takes Madeline from Key West to Bath, England. Where Madeline is trying to put her life back together after much heartbreak.Her new career as a Psychotherapist has introduced her to some unsavory people, but when a new client walks in, her life is turned upside down. And the secrets of the past are threatened to be revealed. Can Madeline help her new client & solve the secrets of the past at the same time? Or is she better off going back to Key West?Bloodprint is a well written page turner. And with each page you turn, a bit more of the mystery is revealed. I was pleased with the way the story came together & was very pleased with the way the book ended. Like I said, the perfect thriller for a cold winter day less
