COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Tied together nicely submitted by smgop on August 13, 2012, 1:01pm At first, the interchange of the character's situations and circumstances made this book seem a little choppy; however, bit by bit, I came to like the interplay. Cleverly written book about how a seemingly random incident - the mugging of an elderly woman - sets into motion the butterfly effect and affects a number of different lives.
Good book!
