I chose the rating because I found it an easy read on holiday. Some strories taken from true accounts some fiction. Totally believable and gripping. Not an avid reader but found it difficult to put the book down.

This novel is collection of short stories. JA has written few such books but I never purchased one before. This is surprisingly good and refreshing from the usual tone that JA uses in novels.
