Review: Breathless, Overdone but Quite Enertaining
Rating: 4 out of 5

The hero is the worst nightmare of a parent who has a 22 year old son. The author clearly was raised on the version of The Perils of Pauline appropriate for his age group (whatever that may be). The situations defy credibility. Yet, yet, one feels the suspense almost every minute, one gets engaged with the story and lead characters, and one is immersed in the story, willy-nilly, like it or not. In other words, never mind that the hero has a lot of growing up to do, never mind that we do not know whether there is to be a heroine or a wicked woman, never mind the bizarre plot twists; the  book is eminently readable and a great bargain at the current price of 99 cents.
