While it was clear from the beginning that Branwell did not hurt the baby and that Vivian had been screwing with him, I wanted to find out exactly what and why. The book was like a puzzle, each chapter being a piece you had to fit together. Wonderfully suspenseful, perfect for curling up in a chair with on a chilly foggy day. Connor was the best friend a person could ask for. Both he and Branwell seemed very intelligent. Connor's sister Margaret was my favorite character. Vivian was a snake. The only thing I wished I could change about the book would be making her go to trial for hurting Nikki instead of just losing her job.
