I enjoyed the first half of this book and found it quite the page turner to begin with. Jesse, a doctor, goes to his wife's apartment to find that she's been murdered and his daughter has been kidnapped. Scrawled on the wall are the words "You Don't Deserve Her".
What follows are a series of flashbacks to his past in a children's home that are intertwined with the current day. It becomes clear that the current day crime is linked to his past at the children's home, but how?
There are a number of likely suspects (the boys didn't exactly get along in the home) but one by one others are being "bumped off".
What follows is a typical race against time to save his daughter but once we discover who the murderer is it all becomes a bit confused. I got to the point where I was struggling to understand who was who.
It's a decent enough storyline but perhaps just made over complicated.
