I wasn't impressed with this at all! First book I've tried from Stone, think I have another one on a shelf somewhere.

It's a short book but could've been shorter if a lot of the 'thoughts' or 'thinking' or 'descriptions' which weren't necessary had been left out, then it would've been about 150 pages instead of 250.

The first part when she 'steals' this money just seemed stupid, I worked in a bank and you'd find something like that in no time so it just kept getting more dumb as each page turned, I finally just skipped a lot of it -- then it came to the next part where she becomes a sex slave but by that time? I didn't care.

So even with the spoilers here it wouldn't take a person but just one day to read this book then get it back to the library. There are much better writers out there that could've taken this scenario and made into a really good thriller, but this one is just sort of ho hum.
