Kidnapped by Jan Burke
28th November 2007
I was eager to read this book, as I love mysteries, and the book description sounded interesting. However, I was quite disappointed. The characters were flat, and the mystery, which could have been exciting, lacked intensity. Burke has won several awards for her books, so maybe I’m misjudging her writing, but based on this book, I won’t be reading more of hers.
