Critic reviews

"Dietrich has a writing style that feels like a breath of fresh air... A fine psychological thriller." —Booklist, Booklist on GIRL AT THE EDGE
"Dietrich has a writing style that feels like a breath of fresh air in a genre that sometimes suffers from a sense of sameness, and her characters and their dialogue are exquisitely rendered. A fine psychological thriller."—Booklist
"Original metaphors and nice descriptions bolster this extended monologue of a potential killer... Dietrich's assured prose bodes well for the future."—Publishers Weekly
"Karen Dietrich can stop your heart with a sentence."—Paula McLain, New York Times bestselling author

I was really looking forward to this book. The story seemed very interesting and posed the question of nature or nurture and what happens to the children of mass murderers?
I have to say I was disappointed, I have not read this author before and I found her style overly descriptive of moments in time but did not really delve into the main theme of the book what were the main characters motivations and drivers. There was very little exploration of he relationship to her mother or how own feelings about her father and what he had done. The end was very flat and did not really answer any questions I had about the premise of the book.

Disappointing
