5.0

I've never been disappointed in any of Mr. Carrico's books - including this one. It looks like a couple of other reviewers have already given a synopsis and since I'm not very good at those, I'll just tell you what I liked and didn't like about it.

What I liked:
Skillfully written and made me feel the immediacy of Wayne's problems.
It kept me wondering if Wayne was a good or a bad guy - innocent or guilty. But regardless, I still wanted to like him. His character is well developed and his angst to get out and find his daughter and grandson were felt throughout the pages.
While their characters aren't fully developed yet as this part focused on Wayne and his turmoil, there are two others that look to be interesting and I look forward to getting to know them in future releases.
The pace was great and kept me turning the pages.
Overall, I really enjoyed reading it.

What I didn't like:
I enjoyed it and I want more now!

Although this is a serial, it didn't leave me with an unsatisfactory ending. I felt it closed at the right place - a little resolution and with a little knowledge of what's to come. I definitely recommend this one!
