Well written, tense and really exciting. Good little twists- and a reasonable ending. Thoroughly enjoyable- will look out more from this author.

I'm still processing this tense, terrifying read. Even though I wanted to stop reading it at several points, I simply couldn't. It's THAT riveting. The plot is taut, the characters are root-worthy, and the prose is skilled. It's a disturbing book on a lot of levels, but also a hopeful one in the end. Although in some ways I wish I hadn't read THREE HOURS (it's going to give me nightmares tonight for sure), it's definitely an absorbing page-turner, which Lupton, I am finding, is very good at penning.

Unlike pretty much all of the other reviews I've read, I HAD to put this book down a lot because it was so uncomfortable - both because of its plot and because it made me so angry. Bloody good though, if such a subject matter can be.
