DNF at 43%.

I used to read a lot of Susan Lewis when I was younger, but maybe I've outgrown her because this plot was seriously lacking.

The premise had so much potential, a close-knit family torn apart when male DNA from the cold case murder of a local teenager is found to be a familial match to either a father or one of his two sons.

But why did the author have to make the three men so unlikeable and unsympathetic? Honestly, I don't care which one was guilty and I'm not reading another 57% to find out. And it didn't fit with the picture perfect lifestyle painted in the first few chapters. Even with the news of the DNA to have all three characters immediately turn hostile and undergo complete personality transformations was too abrupt and unrealistic.

And the police procedures really got on my nerves. Would they really DNA test a bunch of sixteen year old first time shoplifters, lock them up and only contact one of the children's parent's? And why arrest only 1 out of 3 of the DNA suspects? Too many inconsistencies.

Anyway, I'm bowing out.
