Average Rating: 
Rating: - Narcissistic Survivors
Excellent writing with great word choices and phrases by Ms. Campbell. There were plenty of plots and sub-plots, although I was a bit disappointed because I figured out "whodunit" too easily (maybe I just got lucky).
I thought two of the main characters (Dana and Lexy) were overly self-involved, and that became weary early into the book. Dana's daughter, Bailey, is a special needs child, and, although it's clear Dana is a loving and devoted mother, throughout the book I felt as though ... Read More

David is a former professional quarterback who is now a work obsessed defense attorney taking on the cases of repulsive criminals in order to provide for his wimpy wife and special needs daughter. Yet after his daughter is kidnapped and gone for ... Read More
Rating: - Could Have Been Better
I found this book to be a bit slow. I didn't percieve it as a page turner and I could have lived without all the footbal analogies. However it was good because it keeps you wanting to know how things will end up. Not Bad
