★★☆☆☆
Labor intensive
This author has talent! Super talent, honestly. But this book did not shine from such talent. It was so laborious. I was expecting a thriller. It was a long way from that, for sure. The relationship between Theo and Sydney was predictable. But their relationship become more the bulk of the story than a thriller which we were promised. I was very disappointed in this story. It had such potential. If the author wanted to portray the racial tensions in America in the past in terms of land, ownership, roots and and manipulation to rid families of such ...that also fell flat because her focus was on a rather boring relationship between the two main characters, instead of a promised thriller. However, she is still a very very good writer. I agree with those who acknowledge her for that.
