A Great Short Story

I loved this book because it is a wonderful short story by an author always known for extensive (400+ page) novels. The story is captivating and leaves the reader wanting more! Too bad this was only a short story. It was also a wonderful TV movie!

A new twist -- couldn't put it down !!!

This novel had a very timely twist to it which made it a real page turner. It was much too short and I wanted to know more about some of the characters that were brought up such as Samantha -- what ever happened to her? Overall I enjoyed every page of the book and can't wait to read more of this author's works. This book was not cluttered with lots of characters and made for a quick and easy read!! Thoroughly enjoyable!
