Review: Interesting Novel

I received this book free to read and review.Although this novel stands on its own the ending does leave the way open for a follow up or even a series as there are a number of loose ends that have not been tidied up.Initially I found it a bit confusing as it is a novel made up of a number of threads and I did not think they would come together in fact I kept reading just to find out who "The boy" was it may well be me but it took me about 67% (kindle scale) when the identity of the boy was revealed for me to realise that the sections relating to the boy were in fact set much earlier in time than much of the rest of the book. For me it would have helped if the chapters had been headed 10 years earlier or present day or something like that which would have got me into it earlier. Without going into the plot which is original and unexpected it does hinge on the trust given to a teacher or the whole story would collapse. I did think that although there was an interesting twist at the end it did bring the main plot to a conclusion rather quickly and easily.In summary an interesting book that made me think, well worth reading.
