A review by kacelaface
Prisoner by Annika Martin, Skye Warren

4.0

I recently discovered Annika Martin is a pen name for Carolyn Crane and just about lost my mind. More Crane goodness to devour!? Yes, please! All of her books are on a firm read, recommend, repeat cycle for me and this book did not disappoint. It's a dark read but still has a lot of the banter and quirk I associate with her work.

I love the way the characters' backstories were revealed slowly, and in their own words as the trust between them grew. No boring expository writing here! They revealed their secrets, but only bit by bit - and never completely. There is much the reader has to (gets to?) fill in about what these characters endured.

A thoroughly enjoyable read. I look forward to the next installment of the Criminals & Captives series!
