This is the first book I’ve read written by Louise Candlish. On the one hand, I liked it. The beginning pulled me right in, though the middle bogged down a bit, the victim of a set up that went on far too long. I was ready to abandon the book, wondering where all the twists were, but I’d heard and read so many good things about it that I persevered. The final third of the book picked up the pace and was filled with the twists and turns many readers are raving about. They were good, though I found them a bit predictable. Still, I spent three or four happy hours reading, and I’ll probably read more of this author’s work.On the other hand, three of the main characters in the book were odious; the protagonist wasn’t odious enough. (I didn't love to hate him.) If we’re going to have a villain narrate, he’s got to be really bad. This one wasn’t evil; he was just kind of pathetic. No, really pathetic. He blows the best thing in his lousy life. He doesn’t pick up on clues that are glaring at him, begging to be noticed. He was a major jerk, and I just kind of wanted to kick him in the behind, but there are others in the book who were far worse. There’s really no one for the reader to identify with or root for, so if you’re the type of reader who needs to identify with a character, better skip this one.If characterization was a little weak, and it was, the author really excelled at description. The book takes place in London, a city in which I’ve lived and worked (singing). I loved the setting, although I lived in a Dulwich Tudor, another part of London that is farther away from the city center and lot leafier than areas closer to the city center. Like the book’s protagonist, I, too, can be claustrophobic, especially if underground, and especially if underground in a tunnel under water, so I’ve taken Thames river transport on several occasions. It was really nice to read about all the things the protagonist saw as his boat made its way down the river. (In case you don’t know, Prospect Square doesn’t really exist, nor does the St. Mary’s stop.)The descriptions of the beautiful Georgian townhouse Jamie (our protagonist) lived in with his partner of many years, Clare, were also very interesting. I loved reading about the townhouse almost as much as I loved the unraveling of the very intricate and convoluted plot, and make no mistake, it is convoluted despite the middle bog and its ending predictability.While reading this book, my first surprise came when I learned the author, and at least two of the book’s central characters, Kit and Melia, considered Jamie and Clare, who were still in their forties, “old.” For god’s sake, I thought. What fortysomething, or fifty or sixtysomething is considered “old” by today’s standard? I personally know people who are septuagenarians who regularly run marathons. Granted, most marathon runners are going to be younger than seventy, but most people in their seventies are quite fit and active and garden or cycle, etc., on a regular basis.Even if you’re like me and don’t consider someone in their forties to be “old,” Jamie and Clare were still old enough (just) to be the parents of Kit and Melia, a couple they seem to have adopted as best buddies. The relationship is a strange one from the get-go, not just because of the twenty-year age difference, but also because Jamie and Clare are well settled and well off financially, though Jamie is “figuring some things out” as the book opens, while Kit and Melia are struggling, to put it mildly.The plot revolves around Jamie and Clare’s desire to be young again and Kit and Melia’s desire to have all the money they want, without having to work for it. (Clare’s Edinburgh parents are wealthy, and the townhouse had been a gift from them.) Of course, complications result from desiring what one cannot have or doesn’t want to work for, and in this case, the complications certainly test just how far each person will go to get what he or she wants.Even though the pace of the book picked up quite nicely in the last third, there were still things that bothered me, the biggest being an impersonation. As a reader, I caught on to this right away, so the character should have, too, yet he doesn’t see it until he can see it in retrospect, which just made him look stupid.The book’s ending left me “sort of” frustrated. I don’t want to spoil the whole thing, but if you’re the kind of reader who needs to see the good folks rewarded and the bad folks punished, you might take issue with the very end yourself.And, this is a quibble, but it bothered me the entire book: I’m a very visual person, so I always picture the characters as I read. In the beginning of the book, Melia’s hair is described as a glossy dark bob (and bobs are straight and sleek). Later descriptions of her hair have it longer and softly curled. Sometimes twisted into a chignon. Not a bob at all, and far too soon for a bob to have grown out. So, which is it? Straight bob or long curls? As I said, this is probably a quibble, and there are no doubt readers it won’t bother at all, but I found it maddening because it was such an easy thing for the author to correct.If you can tolerate a fairly straightforward set-up, and a set-up that goes on too long, you’ll be handsomely rewarded in the final third of the book. If you need depth of characterization, you won’t find it here. The characters do remain “in character,” but they are shallowly drawn and never really develop much of a personality or any depth.If you’re looking for a pleasant way to while away a few hours, this book will fill the bill. It’s fun, despite being dark. If you’re looking for a highly literary novel that will stay with you long after you’ve read the last page, better keep looking. (You might try John Banville or Banville’s mysteries written under the pseudonym “Benjamin Black.” The "Inspector Lynley" mysteries by Elizabeth George are also spectacularly wonderful, and they never bog down.)A solid three stars for this one, but no more, really. (Also posted on my account at Goodreads) When you read a lot of mystery/thriller stories, they can start to feel formulaic. Sometimes you can even see the twists waaaay in advance and it's not as fun to read them - waiting for the rest of the characters to catch up to what you know.this one is NOT like that! This one was a complete surprise. Sure, you will definitely feel like you know some twists, but this one will definitely surprise you at least once, if not multiple times.I liked getting to know Melia & Kit, Jamie and Clare - getting to know their friendship and how it grows. But this isn't a pure, good buddy friendship - there is definite competition as each couple compares what they have and don't have and measure that next to the other couple. It felt realistic and I loved the added petty layer it gave to the story - because I believe that of them all.I loved the pacing, the well told story - even the characters I struggled to like. I enjoyed the setting and the idea of their river commute, it sounded beautiful.
