1. *This was a phenomenal read/listen.
2. *I enjoyed the "current" story of Audrey and how it related to the story ten years earlier.
3. *The writing was detailed, but read easily and flowed from page to page. The format of switching between time periods worked well and made for an intriguing read.
4. *The author did a wonderful job of portraying the characters; both the positive and the negative.
