This book was however, so much more than just a mystery story. The author excelled at creating atmosphere and giving us vivid descriptions of the social, political and sexual mores of the day. In a book filled with mostly unlikeable characters, Kathleen’s youth, hopes, and dreams make her a true heroine to root for. A clever girl, she eventually unmasks the murderer and reveals long held secrets.
Sadly this book was written as the author was at the beginning of her losing battle with breast cancer, and perhaps that explains why this book is so dark. Although the book dragged a bit in the middle, over all I enjoyed this story very much. I found it to be beautifully written and with enough twists and turns to keep me interested in the final outcome. Andrea Badenoch produced one more book after Blink before she passed away in 2004, a loss of a fine writer just reaching her stride. ( )
