Review title: A good story, told all wrong.
Product review: Kim Edwards had a good story to tell, but knowing the "secret" after the first few chapters made the rest of the book seem like a long, dull slog. The only suspense was having other characters find out what the reader already knows. Not good enough. There was some good character development, but "Nora" was hard to sympathize with even though she had suffered a great loss. Kim Edwards somehow expects the reader to understand how losing a child at birth is a good excuse for peeling off your clothes the first time a man other than your devoted husband makes eye contact. Apparently, it's then okay to turn into a self-absorbed, money chasing, serial adulteress. But we're supposed to hate the husband because he made a terrible decision under pressure that he regretted and tried almost immediately to correct? Please.
