And there she will have to make a terrible choice.

This is a new author for me. I really enjoyed Sundial. It's a very dark book at times but a compelling read. I liked the fact the author leads you to expect one thing - that Rob will do something terrible to her strange, troubled daughter and then unexpectedly yanks you in a different direction in the last few chapters. I like being surprised. I thought this was compelling read.
