Flat. Unappealing. Disappointing. Provocative jacket is the best of the book.

I was expecting a lot more oomph, but the story just falls flat. There's a lot of repetition. I didn't understand why both communes were considered so scandalous and required all that public enquiry. Seemed like just a bunch of hippies, nothing dark and sinister about that. Not sure if I missed the deep dark secrets. The ending was rushed as well.
