This mystery/ thriller begins with American Ariel Pryce visiting Lisbon with her husband of three months on a business trip. She wakes up alone in the hotel and her husband has disappeared. She goes to the police and the US embassy for help to find him. The beginning started off quickly grabbing my interest, but the drawn-out protracted uncovering of the past and the crime got bogged down. I was curious enough to read until the end, but felt it could have been a better story if it was tighter and more compact.
