This book is the offering of a young author (very young -- he started this book when he was seventeen)and it's written about love found and lost, betrayal, murder, intrigue, secrets, and obsession.

The very first page of the book opens with an elderly man saying that he has just killed his wife, and that she deserved it, and then he goes on to tell his story to explain why. The story is filled with a feeling of dread and despair and foreboding, and although I knew how it would end, it was still rather well done -- especially considering how young the author was.

It's not a book for everyone -- but if you liked "Atonement", you should give this one a try.
