Product Description

Product Description

County Sheriff Lester P. Morrison wasn’t buying the popular theory that a missing teenage girl was “just another runaway.” When his investigation revealed Melissa Parker was last seen in front of a roadside bar in the company of drunken men, the Sheriff’s suspicions soared to new heights.

In fact, Melissa couldn’t run anywhere. She’d been assaulted, locked in a tornado shelter—a fraidy hole—with no food, no water, and left to die. Her struggles to escape took on a new urgency as Melissa realized she was not alone in that terrifying darkness. The survival clock was ticking.

4.0 out of 5 stars Full of Surprises 25 July 2012
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
I really enjoyed this book. It was well written with a good plot and lots of possible candidates as the culprit of the crime. I enjoyed the relationship between the Sheriff and his Deputy and admired the girl's fight for survival. And there were two good surprises in the story that I didn't see coming 'till it was almost there and even then wasn't sure if it was going to happen the way I thought. I don't want to give away spoilers but I also was unsure about the ending and at one point thought it was going to end differently to how it did. Did it keep me on the edge of my seat with a tightening sensation in my chest? No. Did it keep me guessing and thinking about where it was going next and who might have done the crime? Yes

3.0 out of 5 stars A nicely told mystery 5 Feb 2013
By Combat Wombat TOP 1000 REVIEWER
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
Well presented on the Kindle with good attention to Formatting, pagination and editing.

This is the second book to be selected by the new UK Kindle Forum Book Club - just normal Kindle readers reading for pleasure.

For the book club I'd surmise that this is about as "rich" as the general group want to go. It's not that greusome but it does touch on some pretty strong topics.

In terms of intensity and build up it actually goes backwards - I found the opening chapters quite extreme and after this "baptism of fire" the work undertaken by the sheriff to find her actually reduced the fire down to sparkling embers. And I liked it that way. You can only go so long at full throttle. The gentle building of the players and events worked well for this story and for me.
If you have watched the film "Fargo" you will appreciate the style of this book. Things happen, remarkable things for this quiet hamlet. But it's the people who live here that the story is really about.

If I'm being critical I have an issue with so few characters. It's a "who did what" and with so few people in there it's pretty clear who did do what.
As always, my advice to anyone who does something bad is to SHUT UP! The denouement of XX admitting the crime is Hollywood weak. I think we deserved a little better.
I'd have liked to learn more, a lot more about Morrison. I think his back and side story would have been interesting.

What I did like especially is that it's not one of those books that is going to keep you awake at night with terror. All in all an enjoyable read.

3.0 out of 5 stars Decent thriller 21 May 2013
Format:Kindle Edition
I enjoyed this book, and would recommend it. However, from the other reviews I read I expected it to be much darker and scarier. Overall nicely written, but with few characters on the whole I felt it was fairly easy to work out the plot.
