I was hoping this book would be the beginning of my next reading list. A series based on a detective searching for missing persons sounded promising. It did not, however, live up to its promise. The main character is not memorable (what was his name?) and the storyline is laboured. It was a page-turner, but only because I wanted to have done with it.

I loved this book,it was Tim weavers debut and it has everything you want in a thriller,plenty of twists and turns,a hero that you cant help rooting for and a twist ending that you don't see coming.I honestly could not put it down.Oh and Mr Weaver is a really nice guy.
