Reviews
On Aug 4 2007, Grateful said:
While this book has a bit of a slow start, it's like the first big drop on a roller coaster ride: once it got started the twists & turns were both exciting and realistically believable. Haven't we all got a little Ben Bradford in us?
A definite page-turned, not to be missed!
