I thoroughly enjoyed this book. The details in the setting were very well done; one felt like they were walking down the same streets, entering the same rooms as the character. The story line was compelling and hooked me from the very beginning. I liked the twists and turns - usually I figure out plot quickly in books of this genre, but this one had just enough to keep me off-balance and eagerly anticipating the next chapter. A very good read, well worth your time.
This book was not easy for me to get into. I almost stopped reading it several times but, lacking another good book to read, I plodded along right to the end. It was a slow and trudging process, wading through the convoluted plot. The premise was implausible to me and the main character, Nick Barrett, was not endearing.
Was I supposed to feel sorry for him because he had been in a tragic accident and ended up with a prosthetic leg? Or perhaps because he is wrongfully blamed for that accident whi This book was not easy for me to get into. Or perhaps because he is wrongfully blamed for that accident which also killed his new wife's brother? Maybe because he was mysteriously abandoned by his mother as a child and then mistreated by his extended family, never allowed to really belong?
Or perhaps I should feel sorry for him because finally they succeed in pushing him out of their genteel, albeit corrupt, southern society when he is forced to leave and never return all in an attempt to hide deep, dark family secrets. Well, Nick does return but only at the bidding of an unknown letter writer who insists he should come back to learn the truth many years later. Thus, the tale begins. This story was too drawn out.
By the time I got to just one more "juicy detail" of the twisting and turning plot line, I was disappointed. Each new revelation from Nick Barrett's past, surely designed to surprise and intrigue the reader, left me shaking my head while rolling my eyes. To me, it was rather predictable and overblown. All that fighting to find out what's on the end of the fishing line, and lo and behold, I was disappointed with my catch.
I should add that, in general, I'm not a big fan of a novel that jumps from the past to the present and back again as this one did. What can I say? Many people clearly liked this book and enjoy this author and series much more than I did. Some like chocolate, some vanilla. This was not my flavor. Will I read the sequel? Maybe, if only to give the author another chance. But not because I fell in love with Nick Barrett as a character or because I can't wait to find out what happens next.

Nick Barrett Series
Oct 16, Dorry Lou rated it liked it. Nick returns to the city he was raised in but not by his mother. So now he wants answers and also revenge. He wants what was taken from him and he wants the truth. A lot of dark secrets are revealed. Some twists and turns. Not a book I usually read, but I found it interesting.
