Mutually attracted, the two end up in a moral standoff that is shattered by events that dramatically confirm the truth of Ralph's dictum: we can never know for certain what another person is thinking.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>A smart, seductive novel of ideas...Lodge is at the top of his game.
