Another story in installments - left hanging with no satisfactory ending. Its so obvious when a story has been split in two to get another book out of it. - part two next year.
Interesting characters, but overkill on details about NASA operations and space technology (and I usually like that sort of thing). Obviously making the most of her two years research at NASA.
I was unable to finish this book. It is one of the most poorly written books I have read in a long time. The uneven pace and boring repetitions of the protagonist's insecurities were infuriating. I just wanted the author to get on with telling me her story. Instead I had to constantly relive the character's several-years-in-the-past-trauma of cutting her hand while slicing a bagel. This is boring, lazy writing. And much of the secretive plot revolves around the standard trope of characters withholding vital information from each other.
I love Patricia Cornwell and even though I hate to give a 1 star rating, this book deserves it. It was really slow at the beginning and seemed drug out in the middle with a confusing end!
