The plot is really good. I mean the president's daughter is in crisis, those who want to save her also end up getting into trouble with the President, the Wind Dancer, stolen fake diamonds, a professional killer, a pre-med student and some romance.. This plot could have been written in a much more exciting way!
The characters are underdeveloped. Some of the dialogues sometimes get confusing, you dont know who's saying what... The twist in the plot is abrupt.
I had a hard time finishing this book. ...I would say pick up another of Iris Johansen's book especially if it's the first time you'll read her work.
Cassie (a seven year old girl) has witnessed a horrid robbery gone wrong! monsters, death, hide! Is all she will allow her mind to register?
Dr. Jessica Reily has helped her sister and other traumatized cationic children return to reality, so when the President of The United States asks her to help Cassie back how could she say no!
Jessica's sister, Melissa, returns home from college for what Jessica thinks is a well needed break, but what we learn very quickly is everyone has there own agenda!
Travis, the man who rescued Cassie, is brought in to find the man responsible for Cassie's trauma, yet he's not to be trusted because his past is beyond shady.
There's some physic and telepathic parts, which may seem unreal, but I don't find these parts to lessen the story but make them more interesting. Its not any different then believing in knights in Shinning armor coming and sweeping us off our feet -Real?to some... intriguing for others and plain stupid for the non-believer.
I couldn't put this book down! If you like Iris Johansen give this book a try... although most reviews are against this particular book, don't let that stop you. Judge for your self!
