Burt, Alexandra

Burt's (Remember Mia) latest offers a compelling premise and flashes of suspense but often feels convoluted to the point of abstruseness. The story, which is primarily told from the alternating perspectives of Dahlia and Memphis, becomes bogged down when three additional characters begin sharing their points of view. Despite a promising start, the book devolves into an overly complicated yarn with a plot arc that moves at the speed of stone.
