"Torn" is a compelling read, full of action, excitement and emotional intrigue.
There's a rich mix of characters - sleazy, sophisticated, sexy and suave - skilfully interwoven through the narrative; each well rounded and playing a significant part in the unfolding story. No padding out of the plot in this book.
"Torn" is tightly written, every word counts, and a full and vivid picture is painted. In fact, the text jumps so successfully into vision that it would translate to the screen brilliantly. Perhaps there's a future blockbuster here? There's certainly potential for a sequel to this absorbing novel - write on!

I have not written a review before, but this book, by a new author, gave me so much pleasure that I felt it worth the time to say so. I so often stick with authors I know and this was a writer I had never read before. This unexpected Christmas present has definitely broadened my horizons and I look forward to further books by Ms Eveleigh Bell.
