Maureen Posted January 16, 2006 Posted January 16, 2006 The (first) story is all in the title.... The book is two stories.....narrated in alternate chapters, which obviously are entwined, coming together in the last chapters. One is set in the past - twelve years before, when the characters (of Grant County for those who read earlier books) are younger, and the other one is in the present. It opens with a brutal murder attack, which seems pointless, in the present, the reason for which is in the past. I liked the way one of the characters, Lena, is developing again. If I remember correctly, the first book in the series was about and around her, and she was one heck of a character, but a couple of books later I did not like her so much any more. Now in this book, her character is picking up again. Although not a great work of literature, I enjoyed this book - the kind of book which has heros bad guys, and a nice plot. Quote
