An excellent thriller with a message. I really enjoyed this book and understand why it's on everyone's "BEST" list, including Obama. The characters are diverse and deep; there are plot twists that take you by surprise; the ending may surprise you. I felt I knew what was going to happen, and I was just partly right. I learned a bit about the Adirondacks and how they came to be so undeveloped. Yes, we appreciate that now, but the reasons date back to when the upper class decided to declare this area "theirs" for rest and relaxation and bascially kicked all of the farmers out, or made it hard for them to make a living.
This is a crime story but it's also a story of class division, power, corruption and privelege. Really enjoyed!
