Review: Not up to Miles's standard
Rating: 2 out of 5

I'm not certain I read the same book others have reviewed here. But title, author and cover say otherwise. So going with that...I was very disappointed in this book. I have thoroughly enjoyed many other books from Miles, but this one falls short on many levels. The story line is very esoteric. There is very little depth to the characters. The author alludes to some past, secretive reason for Sarah's vulnerability, but never reveals it.The antagonists are irresponsible, hardly intimidating, non-threatening, and roll over at the slightest idea of getting in trouble. There is little action, no real suspense, and too many characters to keep in check.It was not a compelling read, and I find little to like other than Sarah's strength. I would have liked more character depth and a heck of a lot more action. This book was wrapped up so quickly and incongruous it was as if Miles was under deadline to finish it--but had no clue how. So let's just come up with something out of context so you'd have no way to guess or even suspect how it ends.I won't let this deter me from reading any future books from Miles. After all, everyone has a bad day. Mine was the day I read this. Why 2 stars and not 1? I  finished the book.
