The construction of the story is interesting: as many parts as steps in a dinner: aperitif, entry, main course, dessert, digestive, and gratuities; Unfortunately many flashbacks necessary for understanding the characters come to interrupt this pace, as many outings outside the restaurant during lunch or many round trips to the bathroom give a slightly disjointed feel to dinner and the construction selected.
The psychology of the characters is also interesting in the sense that a failover occurs feelings to the reader, between the politician presented as hateful by his brother, and the final situation.
A disturbing novel, which raises questions about responsibility, his personal relationship with the law, and what one is willing to do or not to save her children. Easy to read, the novel reads very quickly, if only to know what will be the outcome. However, I found annoying and unnecessary choice of the author not to name certain things, including the names of diseases. A novel that can open up interesting debates among readers because the choice of characters can not leave indifferent.
