For what it's worth, I found The Rook to be a poorly written disappointment & I gave up after a couple chapters. I was very excited to read it given the plot synopsis and all the positive reviews out there. But I tend to get distracted & rewrite sentences/phrases in my head when I find a book is not written well, and that's what I found myself doing with this one. But I seem to be in the minority, lots of people seems to be enjoying The Rook so there must be something good about it.
