When he is exonerated by new evidence, her life is turned upside down. ( ) I thought this book had promise: set in a small Louisiana city after a hurricane; a man is freed after 20 years incarceration based on a mistaken eyewitness identification; the eyewitness happens to be married to the (now) police chief who originally investigated the crime, the murder of her then boyfriend (and father of her then unborn child). It had all kinds of great, juicy potential. But a more predictable telling of this story, I do not think I can imagine. The bad guys have "bad guy" written all over them from their first appearances. The heroine is a total irritant. The freed convict starts out intriguing enough, but quickly regresses into a whiner like everyone else. The author did not really do anything with the post-hurricane setting (just had the characters complaining about the residual stench) and then at the end threw in the idea that maybe there were some racial issues going on (oh, what a wild thought: the possibility of racial conflict in Louisiana). I am sure you have other things on your reading list. keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
