I kind of hate to give it such a low review because the story seemed interesting. The problem was that I felt disengaged from the main character, Trici. Part of it might be the present tense style. I'm not very fond of it with even the best of writers and the author wobbles, at time slipping into past tense occasionally. The writing was all tell and no show. We are told Tricia is upset and we are told Tricia is this and that but nothing happened to make me care at all about her. There was too much detail about trivial things and Tricia's name was very overused. As I said, the story was interesting and maybe with a little reworking could grow into something very promising. There was just nothing else to hook me in.
