For four anguished years Ben and Sarah Cooper's daughter, Abbie, has been on the run from the FBI, wanted for murder and acts of eco-terrorism. But when Abbie's body is found embedded in the ice of a remote mountain creek in Montana, the family's devastation deepens into mystery. How did Abbie die? And what was the trail of events that led this golden child of a loving family so tragically astray? The Divide is a very well-written novel with an engrossing and interesting plot. The novel started off so well but the plot did get quite slow halfway through the book. I did wish it would speed up at times but the story did remain strangely engaging. The last 60 or 70 pages of the novel were just as gripping and compelling as the first half of the novel. To tell the truth, I enjoyed the family drama sub-plot a lot more than I liked the murder mystery plot but I think that was probably because I didn't like the character of Abbie all that much. I loved all the vivid and wonderful descriptions of the Montana setting and landscape that made me feel like I was actually there. Nicholas Evans has got a great writing style and I love his use of language and imagery. The characters were well-developed and realistic. There were some characters I really liked and some I didn't really care for at all. I loved the characters of Sarah, Josh and Ty. I sympathised with Sarah. I thought Josh and Ty were strong male characters. I hated the characters of Ben, Abbie and Eve. I thought Ben was a selfish, egotistical, controlling prick and Abbie was a selfish, immature, whiny brat. I kept wishing she would grow the hell up and act her age. Abbie was definitely the female version of her father. I did think that what happened to Abbie was partly Ben's fault. I thought Eve was fake and nasty and definitely not someone I would like in real life. The Divide wasn't anywhere as good as The Horse Whisperer and The Loop but it was still a good read nevertheless. 3.5 Stars!
