Query: What's Going On Here?

Did Anita Shreve promise her publisher to a book of so-many pages? Is that why the Halifax disaster novel of Agnes is included? Or, is it there as a clumsy attempt to mirror 9/11? Whichever, it is, it fails! I would have liked to learn more about the other characters, Jerry, etc.I'm the type of reader who usually finishes a book, no matter how painful...and I finished this one. I had to, as I had just stopped at Day 5 in "Ten Days in the Hills." I couldn't fail on two consecutive reads.If you haven't purchased this book, don't! If you have, save it for the beach.
