This is a good narrative about human conscience and doing the right thing – if not a little simplistically written. It seems so much of our society wants stories of good and evil, right and wrong and many forget that the reality of life is actually gray. That most bad things are done by good people and many times done with good intentions. This story reveals the consequences of our decisions and the weight of those decisions on our conscience and how those decisions can negatively affect others.

I really enjoyed this debut novel, even though I didn't love the characters I couldn't stop reading the story. I loved the way the book was written, it was very fluid like the ocean itself. The book was one of those where you could picture the places and people it was talking about. I'm looking forward to this authors next book, glad I read this one!
