I wanted to like this read...really I did! Unfortunately, the hype did it no service nor did the promise of "changing my life." This was simply a tragic tale of three individuals who met under horrific circumstances. I also feel that the cover and back cover copy were a bit misleading. The cover is ...

Is this the same book as "The Other Hand" by Chris Cleave? Maybe the book has different titles in different countries?
