Deception
At first I really didn't like this book. After 10 pages or so I went back to the dust cover to orient myself, then started again. About half way through, I didn't hate it, and decided to persevere because I trust the taste of the friend who recommended it, and I usually like PR's writing. By the ending I was sold. I really enjoyed it and am glad I saw I through. By the way, some of the reviews below (both good and bad) have incorrect information. That's one of my pet peeves.
