Just finished the book and it was not what I expected, yet still VERY good. I sense she is doing a trilogy on this one?? The characters were very interesting, and Alexis did a very good job of showing each one's motives/character in this.Have to say, I was not anticipating this type of book, but the story was extremely good, and it keeps you on your toes. Actually looking forward to the next one, because I am curious to know if Seth, Julia, Ofelia etc. will succeed.
