I have also just read the Kindle sample of the book, but by now I can surely state that it is a story worth reading and pondering. It has got all things necessary to appeal to people of various cultural backgrounds around the world, namely, to name but a few, underlying ethical issues, social and family clashes, 'universally acknowledged' values and virtues, feelings, emotions and mindsets; which have been altogether put to the test and defied in a striking way. The language and style are definitely intriguing, characters are quite realistic and convincing, the mood is never monotonous, suspense is omnipresent, insights and thought provocations, incl. the so-called 'soul-searching' exercises are subtly evoked in the reader's own mind, without being overly intrusive. The moral is implied beneath the surface of the ongoing thriller and action. The deeper reality of inner motives and human nature's driving forces vs the established principles is something we need to uncover by constantly 'scratching the surface' of the plot, at least.
