I couldn’t get past the first chapter. The moving from present to past was disorientating. I’m not a fan of first person writing anyhow, but coupled with “Dick Tracy” type detective talk just doesn’t do it for me.

I’m sure this book is fabulous, but I couldn’t get past the first chapter. I can’t enjoy “small child in jeopardy” novels, particularly not small children the age of my own brutally deprived of their mothers.

Very enjoyable, once the mess of the first 3 or 4 chapters has been gotten through. Not that they’re not enjoyable, but the moving from past to present is very jerky. Sometimes you’re only in the present for a sentence or two and then JERK, you’re in the past again. After that, much smoother sailing. A fun book. A vampire book with heart. Go figure.
