It's
Wednesday in Hidden Falls, ten days since the banquet and Quinn's
disappearance. Today it comes together. The mystery is revealed.
What's
the final evaluation? The mystery of Quinn's disappearance pretty
much made sense. There were several red herrings in the course of the
episodes. Some events that seemed so important at the time were of no
importance in the end. The reason for Quinn's disappearance is fully
explained but not (to my satisfaction) the fact that he failed to
communicate with anyone while he was gone. But then, if he had, we
would not have had the mystery.
The
one odd part of the novel was Ethan's heritage. It pretty much got
revealed but I am not sure it had any real impact on the plot. It
almost seems like it just filled up plot space, so to speak.
Probably
the most rewarding aspect of the novel is the relationships that
changed over the time of Quinn's absence. Cousins are finally
friends. Old sweethearts are finally together again. New sweethearts
are making their way to the future.
This
was a fun series to read, a chunk at a time. I wonder how it would
read in one setting.
