- Right up the alley of anyone who likes to be kept guessing and people who like their stories with a little heart-flutter. One to watch when you can give it your full attention.
- The mood
- Tense, warm and romantic.
- The pace
- Gives its people room to develop, at 1 hr 24 min. Done before bedtime.
