James sets the lead male character, Dr Klaesson, as an academic scientist leading a research group who model human evolution. Much of the 'science' (factual or fictional) is then explained to the reader through conversations between Dr Klaesson and his wife.

Some of those criteria, particularly pressure from parents and perfectionistic concerns, also were correlated with more suicide attempts. Moreover, the relationship between parent and child here is infuriatingly inconsistent – neither parent is really shown to bond with their children as such, and Naomi in particular behaves as if she actively dislikes or even fears them, but suddenly when required for the purposes of the plot, they suddenly begin to behave completely differently towards them. I fully understand that the parent-child relationship is a complex one, but I don’t find the sudden turnaround in Naomi’s maternal instincts particularly credible.

Worsening matters, being self-critical might lead to depressive symptoms but those symptoms then can make self-criticism worse, closing a distressing loop.

Find good people and leave the bad ones.” But I say, find the good in people and ignore the bad in them.

Until he gets to our family, when for no apparent reason he loses his cool completely, forgets how to shoot and stumbles all over the place before effectively getting killed. It seems like a completely different character.We come to love not by finding a perfect person, but by learning to see an imperfect person perfectly. ― Sam Keen The writing itself is fine but that's about it and I couldn't recommend this unless you're a big Peter James fan.
