If I was to walk into a library or book shop and read the description on the fly, would I have purchased or read this book? NO!But, being a complimentary copy, I felt that I had a duty to read it.Absolutely struggled for the first couple of chapters.The story line just did not flow, back and forth, past and present, confusing.But, persistence paid off.The main characters, the Dr and his side kick, interacted well. The other characters began to emerge and the plot lured me in.Eventually I found the fiction, mixed with the historical importance of the novel spell binding.I felt that the ending could have been completed more. It was like the author was happy just to get the main theme over and done with. It was though the publishers had put pressure on the author for a printing dead line.Still, it added up to a very interesting story about a topic I would never have volunteered to read about.Thanks.
