Review: GIRL IN TROUBLE by Stacy Claflin


Alex Mercer had a crappy life with a dead-end job. The only thing he can look forward to was his daughter’s Halloween party. But the past can never be forgotten.

The perfect daddy/daughter night at the Fun Zone Arcade turns into a nightmare when a man kidnaps his daughter. The events leading up to this point was rather slow and the lengthy narrative was predictable. You just knew where the girl was headed when she stepped into the parking lot. Then afterwards, there’s a lot of time spent on Alex’s panic and blind search for the girl. It was fine, but just slow.

Story was well-written overall with a sense of allure. The whole thing keeps at the same steady, slow pace throughout the book. It’s a decent thriller read, but just needed to be quicker.

 

Rating: 3 stars
