What do readers think of Original Sin by Beth Mcmullen? Write your own review.

Getting into this book was a little difficult for me. Lucy Hamilton seemed a flippant and totally self absorbed stay-at-home mom of a 3 yr old telling a 1st person story that was a bit boring. As insights into her past life unfold she becomes a bit more interesting. The development of her back-story through jumps to tales from the past was not especially smooth and sometimes a bit confusing. Eventually the past and present start intersecting and things move more quickly. By the end of the book I liked her a lot but found myself feeling that too many of the things that happened seemed a little too unbelievable to make me take her and her story seriously.

Lucy Parks Hamilton is a suburban stay at home Mom with a 3 year old son and a husband who is saving the world one tree at a time. But when she was Sally Sin, she was an agent for the U.S. Agency for Weapons of Mass Destruction - saving the world by eliminating one terrorist at a time. In her novel "Original Sin" - with a plot straight from a comedic action film- Beth McMullen has written a perfect page turner beach book as Sally - or Lucy - tries to keep the fall out from her old life from destroying her new one.
