Title: Meh.
Product review: What more can I say? I was ready to strangle Wilda, to tell Alanna to get her act together, to thrash Ian soundly for raping a woman, to kill off his father (who was already ailing), and several other "characters", none of whom were at all vital to the core story but simply annoying. If you are a Dodd fan who must read all her works, go ahead. But be warned: this is rather a stinker, even with the lovely potential for magic (never well-enough developed).OK - it's "old Dodd" (1998), but still... she surely knew better. There are few scenes less believable than those in which Ian suddenly "realizes" or "understands" something... Oy. I'm glad I came out of this one alive. If it didn't have selkies and that bit of magic, I'd give it one star.
