I think any teen would love to jump into Tor's shoes.although maybe not have the evil men pursuing them. There's a great relationship between Tor and her brother, and the parents manage the situation with parenting perfectness. The supporting characters in this story are lovely. Tor finds herself in deep trouble, and she's up against a horrible threat, but her view of the world manages to stay hopeful. That was one of my favorite aspects of this book, the way it took a very serious situation and definitely hit the thriller end without having the overly dark, morbid feeling often found in YA literature. The opening scene with the 'older' guy was simply fun and was a great way to start off the story, which although manages to keep a 'light' tone, still delves into some pretty serious areas. We start with her in a park walking her cute doggy (yep, one to fall in love with). Tor is exactly the kind of girl one would expect to run into in the high school hallways-a little mouthy, a little head-strong, but a big heart and ready to stick up for what she believes in.even if it means going what most people would consider a little over-board. This is a modern day, teenage mystery/thriller with a fantastic teen voice. Note: I received a free copy from Xpresso Tours in exchange for an honest review.
