I agree Bluesapphire it did not flow well and required concentration to keep abreast of things. Like the curate's egg - good in parts.
I haven't read anything else by this author either.

Have read it and J agree witb your summary. Have read Miss Garnets Angel also. Takes time to get into as well. Too much effort imo.

Just wondering whether anyone else has read this and what they thought of it. I have just read it for our book club, and found it very difficult to get into, with short, disjointed chapters, set in different places and times, and so many characters. I kept having to go back and check who was who and when and where things were happening.
Then suddenly about halfway through it all seemed to come together and I found it difficult to put down, and just had to know what happened next, and managed to keep up with the story.
Not sure whether I fancy any of the author's other books though.
