The Glass Butterfly (2012) - Plot & Excerpts

Disappointing. Wanted more mystery. The whole plot as to why she was running seemed lame and never explained in depth. The parallel story was interesting but overall I felt that the book never really takes off. I found myself two-thirds of how way done realizing I was a little bored and frustrated there wasn't more substance. Glad I borrowed this from a friend rather than paid for it. Sort of like a cable TV movie on a Saturday afternoon. Not too bad watching but glad I didn't have to play full price to see. Suspenseful and face-paced, with a character who is a therapist and also has "psychic" tendencies, which she ignores in the case of a client she is working with. She has to run for her life. She also has a chance to reflect on her life, and because of her love of Puccini, there runs a counter-story through dreams about an opera he is writing and the parallels with her life. I found both stories interesting, but at times, wanted to get back to the main mystery as it came to a head.
