One-word review:
MELODRAMA.
More than one-word review:
Entertaining melodrama, at any rate.
Despite the redundancy factor of Casey saving Kerry from a factory fire/Arthur saving Michael from warehouse fire.
Despite the fact that Finola has amnesia, muteness, rape, regaining of her voice, and a baby all in a few short months.
There are quite a number of things I had forgotten about this book - probably because of my focus on the Fitzgerald drama. I had no recollection of Alice Walsh becoming a more important character already or the warehouse thing until I read it.
All in all I would say I did not enjoy this as much now as I once did, but it still held my attention. There is certainly no lack of drama to bore one.
On to the next one.
