review 1: This was one big disappointment. The first third of the book seemed to hold a lot of promise - the main character is on the run from her ex and it gets you wondering what he's done and what a stinking baddie he'll turn into. Unfortunately the book just drags on and on with descriptions of how depressed she is and the walks she goes on! The most we get in the way of tension is a few nasty Emails from her ex. There was no cat and mouse, will he get her or not, it was just boring all the way through then it all happens in one chapter at the end. I've got another book by this author but I'm reluctant to even bother opening it now.
review 2: A good read, but quite a long book which could perhaps have been reduced slightly, although the plot does makes you want to re
... moread on as she provides sufficient clues and intrigues into the characters and the background to where the story starts. Sometimes I think it got a bit bogged down in all the Isle of Wight location descriptions though, and, although it would obviously have spoiled the plot and story, I did lose a bit of patience with Kate for not having reported any of the incidents (attempted rape, threatening emails and phone calls etc) to the police. Good characters though. less
