Summary: Kept the pages turning
Review: I bought this book while I was camping in Lake Placid. I have to admit that I was I was intrigued and surprised by the ending. Throughout the entire book I thought one character murdered the young girl and it was not until the end that it all came together. Good pacing and definately worth your time.

Summary: Couldn't get by the glaring error
Review: The book begins and then builds to the same climax: A execution by electric chair in New York State in 1986. The problem: New York State executions were suspended from 1977 to 1995. The author should have know this: He was a former FBI agent and he lives in New York State, where pro and anti execution stances were hot political issues of the time. Otherwise, the story is terrific with twists and turns that should keep the reader spellbound until the very end. In fact, it's hard to elaborate on the plot without ruining the surprises within. It's a well crafted tale and perfect beach reading. But, every time the author returns to discuss the state held executions he loses me. I become focused on this glaring error instead of the story he so expertly weaves. Why didn't he set this story in a state that had executions? Why didn't he set this story when executions were allowed in New York State? Why did he muddy the water with a tale based around a total impossibility? If you can get by this editorial faux pas, then this is a story I would give four stars. But, I couldn't get by it; it ruined for me what would have been a fine book.
