Too slow

This book is just too slow. Good story but it could have been told in 20 chapters instead of almost 40. I found it hard to believe that in all the area that the girls cover and all the law they would have passed that only 2 officers were willing to help. I also found it difficult to believe that this was 15 and 14 year old girls, to survive that long on their own in what would be the beginning of the winter season? I don't think so. I also really didn't see much growth in any of the characters. The most exciting parts for me were the amount of effort shown by the Idaho detective that looked for them. Good concept but needs work. The narrator done an amazing job. I received this free for an honest review.

Survival and Suspense

I enjoyed this story. It has plenty of drama. The characters were interesting. The young characters had amazing fortitude. I hope there is a continuation of the story. There are still pieces missing to complete the story.

Interesting read; cliffhanger ending

Interesting read with a bit of a cliffhanger ending. While Detective Carl Hamilton is investigating a homicide, Jaci Rivera and her best friends are kidnaped and taken to Canada. Give this book a listen/read to find out how these journeys come together. Great narration.

A Great Listen

How does hanging out at the mall turn into your worst nightmare? Easy, your ride is late and you're the witness to a jewelry store break in, multiply that by four. You and your three friends' lives will never be the same. With believable characters and a twisting suspenseful plot, you'll find yourself listening much longer then you intended. And even though, I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request, and have voluntarily left this review, I will be getting the next book.

Danger and intrigue

This was an interesting book. Some sad things happened. I was able to figure out a clue that was given during the book but it was hard to tell which direction the book was going to take. I kept wondering why the girls wouldn’t turn to people and ask for help but the had reasons to mistrust the police. The book wraps up the main issues but it left room for more books in the series. I’m looking forward to listening to more. The narrator did a fine job.

A great coming of age story

A great coming of age story. It shows that the author has a range. I love her books.

Fast paced and action packed

This book is fast paced and action packed. Four girls become captives of a criminal enterprise. This is the story of how they persevere, escape, and get out of numerous entanglements trying to get home.

I can't wait to read the next book!

intense

Very intense... I thought the story well thought out but I didnt like the fact it was a cliff hanger. That's not to say the story wasnt good...it was & I'll be looking for the next listen as soon as I finish the review!

On the run

This was a well written story, and what made it enjoyable was the narration. The woman performing it did an excellent job.
