Sophisticated and intricate, this debut novel by Karen Dodd starts with a bang, and keeps you turning the page right to the end. It has intrigue, romance on a number of levels, and an inside look at the high stakes of real estate development that I haven't seen before. Her characters jump off the page, and no matter what danger they're facing, you can't help but be involved. I particularly loved Dodd's description of the settings. Whether she was describing West Vancouver,British Columbia, Carmel, California or Tropea in Calabria, Italy, I felt she had an intimate knowledge of these places, which immersed me even deeper in the story. Karen Dodd is an author to watch.
