very well written. I tend not to like mysteries involving kidnapping, but this one was very well done.

Some very interesting characters, (the four abandoned children), some predictable characters, (ex-con with the heart of gold, the driven/lonely female police detective), and a pretty standard cop/investigation story line. Not really sure why it's referred to as a mystery though, it's just a story about cops investigating a crime and a family trying to stay together.

I do feel the ending was very weak though. It didn't end so much as feel like time ran out and everything was just stopped. Perhaps that is partly due to this being a book within a series? This was my first book in the series so I'm not sure if that's a commonality in the other volumes or not.… (mer)

Note: I received a digital review copy of this book from the publisher through NetGalley.

The characters in this book were incredibly believable. The description of Joe's life as a criminal, and how his life experiences strongly encouraged this life, made me feel great compassion for him. It still affects me to this day to think of him perhaps being cheated out of a better life.
