Bedazzled Reading
Victoria and Jonathan Lyons seems to have it all €“ a good marriage, a beautiful daughter, a successful business. But then they discover Emily has a rare, fatal illness, and their entire world shatters. Then Jonathan passes away in a farming accident, as if the family didn€t have enough tragedy to deal with already. Victoria turns to her sick father-in-law, Frank, for help. Victoria must make a choice, an impossible choice €“ and the book raises the question how far one would go for their children.

The book is set on a farm, and that€s just what makes it so odd and surreal €“ the normality of the character€s lives, until tragedy strikes. The book is classified as a thriller, but it packs a lot of punch, sometimes even venturing into horror territory. I would say it€s not for the faint of heart. The characters are easy to relate to, especially Victoria. Her struggle was realistic and heart-breaking.

Once I start reading, I couldn€t stop. Definitely one of the better thrillers out there.

The basis for this story is how far would you go to protect/save your child. But if you think that this book is just about that moral dilemma then think again. This books takes that dilemma, puts it in a salad spinner with a whole host of other great ingredients, including a brilliant twist, and serves up one of the best psychological thrillers I have read.
