The Girl Who Escaped by Mark Nolan – Review by Christie Mitchum

The Girl Who Escaped by Mark Nolan
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The Girl Who Escaped by Mark Nolan was a riveting, action-packed novel that takes off from the very first page!

Angie is a normal college student on Spring Break in South Florida with her three friends. They are enjoying a night out when things go horribly wrong when a man abducts the four of them. Angie is the only one who escapes. Thinking she is safe when she literally crosses paths with a policeman, she finds herself going from being a victim to a suspect. This was only the beginning of a story full of twists and turns. Nothing is what it seems! There are so many layers to uncover within the 318 or so pages.

The book was told from the point of view of different characters, even one of the baddest characters gives the book a voice…which I thought was fantastic. His chapters give insight into what the detectives and FBI agents haven’t discovered yet and what actually motivates him to do the evil things he does.

If the plot didn’t have me hooked, Cody, the IED-sniffing war dog, sure did! He was a great character, along with his owner, Jake. These two characters have their own books, The Jake Wolfe Series. Angie and Brenda were strong female leads as well!

Mark Nolan is a new writer to me, and I am looking forward to reading more books he has written and getting to know Jake and Cody better.
