Barely Breathing was a breath of fresh air when it comes to the mystery genre.  It was an unusual plot line at the finale that really stepped everything up a notch.  Jake and his new acquaintance Laurie set out to find Jake’s cousin Jana who has recently gone missing.  The backstories for both Laurie and Jake are filled in in such a way that doesn’t feel forced.  They are simple flashbacks told through the characters themselves.  Along the way there are quite a few duplicitous characters who make a reader really question who can be trusted and who is actually being truthful.  Any reader looking for a modern day mystery punctuated with a little sarcasm and a little sexual tension will enjoy this book.* I received a complimentary copy of this book in exchange for my review*
