The conclusion - hmm. Chelsea Cain has a rather bloodthirsty intro that appears to trample all over at least half of Liebermann’s point, and that may well explain why her thrillers don’t work for me (do I read thrillers because I want revenge on bad guys? No, I read them because I want to see people cope with terrible situations. The two things may run together but it’s not the same). But I can also see her point in this situation, and I think Levin could too.
I have neither read the book nor seen the film, so I know the conceit but not any of the plot: may I ask?
