Query: Haunting

A friend of mine is taking a Criminal Justice class at our university and this was part of the required reading. Sitting in his room one day I picked it up and started reading it. I was immediatly drawn into the text. I could not believe how real the whole story felt. Several times throughout the novel my heart was racing, and I could not put the book down. Quindlen has done a great job in her character development, which places the readers in the shoes of the character. I would recommend this for anyone looking for a great read. Just as a warning, it is a hard book to read simply because of the abuse that takes place. It is not for the faint-hearted. (however it is very realistic.)
