Better was The Divide by Nicholas Evans. This was a suspenseful murder mystery that follows the story of a girl in her twenties from an upper class family as she begins to explore the world of environmentalism and begins the decent into eco-terrorism. This book explores family relationships and what traumatic events can do to even the best people and ruin the closest relationships. It is also a story of repairing bonds and coming full circle in one's life. Once, I got into this book I could hardly out it down.
Currently I am reading Death Comes to Pemberly by P.D. James, a spin off sequel to Pride and Prejudice. for my local library's book club. As an avid Jane Austin fan I am thoroughly amused by the rewrite. However, I will say that the writer;s attempt at Austen's writing style and use of the English language was somewhat of a fail. It is quite a bit easier to follow for the modern reader than Austen's writing style though. For those who have not read the original this book does skim over important details of the characters' repertoires to give the reader somewhat of a background.
