The story in a few words:
This gripping thriller follows a family whose daughters, Victoria and Elizabeth, were abducted and returned four years later, appearing unchanged. At the same time their parents vanished and haven’t been seen since.
Retired CIA officer, Marcus Handler, is hired to investigate. His search will lead to unexpected and disturbing truths….
My thoughts:
The plot follows the investigation journey of Marcus and is divided in 3 parts said with 3 points of view. The narrative’s tone between sci-fi and medical thriller is attention grabbing, tense and quite addictive. The medical jargon is fascinating although the study and tests performed on the children were hauntingly disturbing…..manipulating kids to trust them so they can easily experiment on them…depressing.
This thriller is fast-paced, goes straight to the point clear and firmly. It is cleverly managed with twists and turns to keep us flipping the pages. A touch of extraterrestrial to tease us is a plus.
Mr. Cooper tackles the most unique subject and has a way with words that pulls us in and keeps us glued to his subject.
Although, this story is far-fetched and not very believable yet I was highly entertained and enjoyed every hour I spent reading this crazy story. I was hooked from the start.
Well said and well done
