Review of 'Dope' on 'LibraryThing'

4 stars

An ex-junkie is recruited to help a wealthy couple find their "dope fiend" daughter in 1950s New York. She picks up the trail and stays on it, in spite of several dizzying twists. All very good until the ending, where the final twist leaves things hanging. I'm all for a bit of ambiguity, but this was a monster-truck sized load of uncertainty.
