A wonderfully compelling read. Though it had its harrowing parts and you knew the suspense would rear up its ugly head again sometime, it was such a comforting, pleasurable, emotionally satisfying, true-blue NR experience. *happy sigh* 
 FYI: Ignore the back cover copy, it will lead your expectations astray! Tone-wise it's mostly closer to The Search than to what the cover copy promises.
