Joolz always takes us to dark places, and harrowing events.

Alma is a complex heroine, well drawn, utterly believable. Fleeing a broken relationship and life in tatters, she takes refuge with her intellectual, aloof parents in Spain. There she visits and becomes fascinated by a cult, followers of a 'Prophet' and his fascinating, beautiful twin sister.

Luckily, Alma is tough and cynical and isn't going to fall for all that hippy dippy loving nonsense. She thinks.

A very enjoyable read - you know it's all going to go horribly wrong, but are drawn on to find out just how. And you are left questioning whether any of us are as tough as we think, whether our friends are who we thought, whether the world is quite bow we believed.

Well, I would not agree with the publisher that it is a “chilling novel” I thought it was an interesting documentation of what happens when someone is taken out of their own element. A person will recognise warnings at home that will pass them by if they are in a foreign place.

I liked it mainly because it had been a long time since I had read anything contemporary from England and the style of writing was very enjoyable. The main character was written as an interesting individual with depths and layers (Sorry Shrek) and since the novel is mostly her own journey of self discovery it was well worth reading.

I liked it enough that I went out and looked for another novel by this author.

A brilliant but not pleasant read. The story is of how the rich and famous use the poor and downtrodden to fulfil their sordid fantasies. This book will haunt me for a long time.
