The Stolen Hours by Allen Eskens

4.5

I enjoyed this book even more than The Life We Bury, the first book of Allen Eskens that I read, which introduced many of the characters we revisit in The Stolen Hours.

It was good to see a shift in focus with Lila as the main character. The pacing was also really good. The tension was maintained without the need to make anyone do something silly.

And even the rock climbing, as much as you would definitely provide someone with more briefing than Andy gave Lila, was fairly accurate, clearly written, and relevant to the plot.
