Summary: Suspenseful with Good Twists and Turns
Review: This was a good read, but i found myself wanting to yell at the police, the doctors and most of all our heroine Abbie Devereaux. Even cops in the backwoods of the deep south will at least conduct some kind of investigation. and why wouldn't our hero tell her parents? her close friends? why was she wandering the shady streets of london alone? oh, becuz she was a loser who did something remarkable in the end. ok, i can dig that. the book was extremely suspenseful. i suspected all sorts of characters were the evil kidnapper, including good-guy Ben. i suspected that perhaps Abbie and Jo were the same people. the twists and turns kept you definitely on edge. and the fact that the story was based in london and used some definite UK terminology took me back. i'd recommend this book and i'd certain read another imaginative tale by nicci french. cheers!

Summary: 'LAND OF THE LIVING'
Review: `LAND OF THE LIVING' is the story of Abbie Devereaux, a young woman who is held captive by a strange man with no memory of how she got there or anything that happened in the days leading up to her capture. We follow Abbie as she tries to uncover the truth about why she was kidnapped as well as prove to the police that her story of being held against her will is true. This is the first novel by Nicci French that I have read and I devoured it in one day. The novel was fast paced and kept me guessing until the very end. I will be rushing out to buy other titles by French!
