This book is brilliant. This is my first Jodi Picoult reading and i'm hooked on her style of writing. To start with I was a little confused with her chopping and changing of characters but it didn't take long before i was engrossed in this mystery.

This is the first book that I read of Jodi Picoult and I was really impressed by her writing styles and the detailed stuff in this book. The describtion of the character and the incident were very real. I was still thinking about Chris and Emily even after i have read the book.
