The main character Melanie is spell binding with her multiple personalities! The author gradually introduces the different selves in a chilling superb way, particularly the young girl who inhabited her from the traumatic experience on a farm (I won't say anything more because this is a big part of the book).Everything about the plot and characters is masterfully woven and builds to a finale that will leave you breathless, or crying like I did. This is a thriller but it is also a deep character study of Melanie and Winnie and the conditions they deal with. Melanie has Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) and to further complicate things she suffers with psychosis (as does her best friend Winnie). Melanie somehow holds it together in her quest to find out about her past and who she really is. Amazing character. Winnie is the baddest of bad girls and yet I loved her and wanted her so much to overcome her addictions (I can't say anymore about that without revealing too much). She's sweet as can be though.
