Although it is obvious fairly early on where this story is headed, the links and connections provide intrigue. Although Very much told from a male perspective, the "paroled" female lead is one step ahead of all the other characters. The heir craving business man, owner of a multimillion dollar company seems to have one employee in the US. Listened to BOT so unable to skip over the excruciating (torture) and repetitious (counting diapers)
sections which detracted somewhat from the story line.

Unbelievably good. The tale describes three main characters in late 90's NYC, all exceedingly likable and flawed, then places them in such excruciating situations that I had to put the book down several times, only to grab it back up greedily five minutes later. Every page is a knife-edge and large parts of this book are unequalled by any other author in this genre. This skilled author knows exactly what he's doing, and it's criminal that he is not as well-known as Andre Dubus III. Don't read another word about this thriller. Buy it and pass it on and be grateful we have Harrison.

If you are middle-aged, or more, reasonably successful, or have lot's of money in the bank
BEWARE:
...the young, sexy girls that suddenly "appear" in your life are a lot more dangerous than you can (or ever need) to handle...
don't get burned!
