Shortly after, she finds a gas station and steals a car…with the owner in it. A thief and a kidnapper, huh. Who would’ve thought? Of course, it wasn’t her plan to take him, but she wasn’t going to stop now, not with stolen cash and a bloody scene. So it’s Jack and Jayne on a road trip…heading north.
Meanwhile, a pair of cops are investigating the scene and looking for Jayne, because, quite frankly, it looks like she might’ve committed a murder.
Story was simple and interesting—well-written, for the most part. I thought it was pretty good, but it might’ve been a little slow for me. Plot was informative of Jayne’s domestic and criminal background as well as the history between her and the cop, Savage. The story shifted constantly between the perspective of the two runaways and the two cops. As the cops got closer and closer, the runaways were driving further and further. At times, the back-and-forth pace got a little annoying, and I just felt like I was getting the run-around by each side. Story just didn’t feel like it was moving forward. I also didn’t buy the chemistry between Jack and Jayne—just two runaways lumped together.
This would’ve been better had it gotten to the point quicker. Like I said, this was pretty good, but could’ve been better.
My rating: 3 stars
