I have only read one Belinda Bauer book previously - a dark thriller - but I enjoyed it, and I was keen to try another. This one starts out in a very creepy, tense way. I hadn't actually realised that the book was about egg collecting, so initially I thought I was reading about some awful child-killer being tracked! So, having discovered the book wasn't quite about what I'd thought I had to readjust my expectations a little and initially it felt like a bit of a bump. But then I was soon gripped by all the different characters in this complicated, inter-woven story. I really liked Patrick and Nick as characters, and really that carried the book along for me. Sometimes I enjoyed the flashbacks in time, and sometimes I felt they dragged a little, but ultimately I was completely caught up in Celie's life and what was going to happen alongside of Patrick and Nick's investigations.
