Title: if only it had an epilogue
Review: like others, i anxiously read this book through to the end, hoping and expecting to find some explanation for the absurd violence visited on the protagonist by his three captors. and even though i had my own theories about 100 pages into the book, i kept looking for more clues, more links to "my" suspect. in the end, i expected an exposition, a telling of the tale without the guise and angst of the captured, but it was not there. i read the final sentence, "go back to the beginning," as an instruction, a final clue, and so i did -- i went back a reread the entire first section, skimmed the rest of the book, in fact, and all i found there were the clues i had found the first time. so i'm pretty sure i know "who done it," but i don't know why and i don't know how the others were connected to the crime. so in the end, i'm disappointed, but i did like the book very much and recommend it.
