Even though it was a gut turning book, I enjoyed the ending…
Kids get kidnapped from a school bus and keep at the underground bunker for ransom… let me just say that having a kid that rides on a school bus, this is horrific! Trying to go through all of the terrifying fear that parents feel when something is wrong… when they don’t know where their child is and what is happening to them…. 
The bus driver: she was annoying at the beginning but I liked the 360 switch and he actually being a big support to the kids.
Sage: a child that is so brave that she managed to literally
dig her way out of the bunker and save all of the kids lives…
all of the kids are great in the book but Sage is one of POVs 
Kidnappers: two dumb guys who decide that life is unfair and want to make quick money by kidnapping the kids… one at least
has consciousness to understand the severity of what they are doing and at the end at least starts to try and dig kids up…

Insane story and as I’ve learned at the end, based of real life events
fast-paced
Strong character development: Yes

A terrifying story about a bus with children traveling from school to daycare goes missing and then one mother gets a ransom note.

As a mother this is a great fear to have your children go missing, scared and not being able to help them. Terrifying!

I did enjoy the book and thought that everything was explained, no plot holes, and it felt real! I did like at the end the author explained some things that she drew from life events.

I can't believe this was based of true story! Crazy things people do for money. Only things didnt like is this book was multiple POV but thats just my personal preferance in books to be max maybe 2 POV. Otherwise it was good!
