When you look back on the story the plot is essentially quite simple, but it certainly doesn't feel like that when you're in the middle of it - and when you're in the middle of the storm it's decidedly atmospheric. At one point I had to look out of the window to convince myself that it wasn't really happening ''now''.
Each time I read I warm more and more to the characters. Stella is a brilliant creation: a reserved, carful careful woman who has her life in order and takes change very carefully. I can't quite work out whether she and Jack are just good friends, or whether there's ''chemistry'' there. The suspense is quite delicious and I'm looking forward to the next book.
I'd like to thank the publishers for sending a copy to the Bookbag.
