This book kept me reading, each chapter changed to a different character and kept you interested through different views. A few chapters seemed out of place, almost like the author just wanted to show off what she knew about religion...a few of the facts where necessary but the rest I could have done without. Overall a good read with some very intriguing questions about that are easy to answer until you are actually in the position to make the decisions. What crimes deserve the death penalty, how should it be carried out, who is able to decide these things without prejudice? Also would you be able to save your daughter with the heart of her sister's killer?

I loved this book, it kept moving and kept me interested. But I always love Dean Koontz..he has a way of keeping you interested from the beginning. I can't wait to read the rest of this series...Odd is a character that you just want to read more about...very interesting.

I am a fan of Oprah's Book Club books, but this one didn't always keep my attention. Not one of my favorites but it was ok. It was a bit slow for my taste, I had to re-read a few parts because I would drift off and be thinking about other things while reading. But the good parts are good...I just wish it was all that good.

This was quite a page turner. Once I picked it up I had trouble putting it down. The characters are so interesting and as you read you are trying to figure out how all the characters are going to come together and affect eachother. Highly recommended!!
