I'm not really sure how to describe this book - passive, quiet, restrained, maybe? It's a good book, but not at all about vengeance and terrorism as the synopsis suggests. In fact, the backdrop of post-9/11 is wholly irrelevant. I think this book is more about realizing that bad things happen - and that there is often not an answer to the question "Why?"
The characters have a lot of potential, but the author doesn't develop any of them to a deep enough level to be satisfactory to the reader. You want to know more about them, but the author really gives you nothing.
