I'd like to give this 3.5 stars - it started out really strong, fast-paced, suspenseful, a page-turner, but fizzled out toward the end. I would have liked to know more about Justin's experience, and found the brother's romantic relationship to be an unnecessary addition. Good book, though, that I was glad to read because it made me enthralled in a book again, after spending a couple of months slogging through a book I couldn't get into and ultimately set aside.
I'm not just saying this because I'm starting a workshop with the author tomorrow, but I thought this was a terrific book. Because we learn early on that the son of Eric and Laura Campbell has been kidnapped, we assume that it's going to be one of THOSE books. It is, in a way, but it's a lot more than that. All of the characters seemed terribly real, to me and I was especially impressed with the portrayal of the sons.
