Title: Just doesn't compare to La Plante's previous work
Product review: This book was a real disappointment because all the real story-telling and scene-building was overtaken by melodramatic descriptions of unbelievable and unappealling characters. I found myself turning page after page, waiting for a real plot to emerge. Some of the most critical sub-plots of the story received almost no attention. In the end, the identity of the villian was of no surprise to anyone who had read the last 100 or 200 pages of the book. What happened to the suspenseful climax? What happened to the twists? What happened to the heated confrontation with the exposed killer?
