Review: Engaging, but rough.
Rating: 3 out of 5

I found myself spending more time than intended reading this book, so I obviously enjoyed the story.  However, I felt that the book was a rough effort that had characters inexplicably knowing the thoughts and feelings of other characters, put them in improbably situations with equally improbable resolutions, and took some liberties with distance and location of the characters as the story progressed.  I did enjoy the well-intended betrayal story line, but that came to an abrupt end, unfortunately.From a grammatical standpoint, I cringed every time I saw 'then' used where 'than' should have been, but the proper usage crept in about half way through the book.  There are other problems with word usage, but the real fault in this story lies in the characters.  They seemed contrived and predictable.Again, I did enjoy the book, so I can't fault it too much, but it needs quite a bit more work to be a five-star effort.
