Review title: Slow, tedious read; a 'forced finish' for me.
Product review: My expectations we not met in my first Trurow novel. The characters were unrealistic (particularly the main one - Robbie Feaver), and the plot was tepid at best. The device of narration by "George" in the first person didn't work and was hard to follow. The ending lacked credibility, given the preceding slow buildup. I kept reading, hoping it would pick up...it didn't. This will be my last Scott Trurow book.
