I definitely enjoyed this story but as other readers have mentioned, the constant back and forth between time periods can get a little confusing at times; especially in the beginning as you're still learning the characters' names.
Once I managed to get over this small burden, I found the storyline to be quite diverse as it explored many different aspects of the same event through a cast of characters experiencing it in different times in parallel.
However, I was expecting more twists and turns along the way (I don't think I gasped even once throughout).
