Is this author being paid by the word? I found this book tiresomely repetitive. The focus was on endless internal dialogues characters are having about relationship issues. First, I think the mystery genre lends itself more to character and relationships being revealed by actions that also propel the plot forward. Second, the characters' ruminations were boring to me. And, the thoughts she assigned to Will Trent did not seem authentic to me. Another minor quibble about style: the transitions from the present to 5 years in the past were jarring and the juxtaposition didn't accomplish anything for me. Each storyline didn't really inform the other in the way successful "now & then" novels are written.
