There was a lot about Elena and her past in the book. I felt it was the authors way of giving us the history of Russia. It felt like he wanted us to see it through Elena’s eyes growing up. Her character was very aware of the danger she was in but still she didn’t protect herself going into Cassie’s room.

It pleased me that Cassie felt affection for Alex. She did have good instincts although how did she miss Buckley!!
I was left with questions like paternity. Did she go to Alex’s family to confirm. Or was he the only one she didn’t use a condom with? Maybe she checked and her child didn’t match the other two lovers. I am a detail person.
Loved the book and I hope to read some more reviews. I will get Mays book for sure because you ladies know how to pick a good book!

So many good points Jennifer… especially surrounding Elena! Bohjalian is definitely a favorite of mine now. I plan to look out for him in the future! :)

I’m a single parent but still understand a little the singles life. Some of the choices she would make would cause me to slap my head and say, “Why?” We have all been there though. What startled me even more is to discover Alex may have been looking to become involved with Cassie instead of the other way around… and NOT for good reasons!! I was stunned by this and even the FBI’s report of Megan and her husband being informants for Russian Intelligence. I kept checking on my knowledge of Cossack from where I teach “The Most Dangerous Game.” I didn’t feel Elena’s death was rushed but the irony of how she died the same way she had caused Alex to die. Such a lovely suspense novel! I will keep Bohjalian on my radar at the library!
