BLINK OF AN EYE was the July 2014 pick in my online book club, The Reading Cove.

After getting off to a great start, things unfortunately went downhill in a blink!

A Saudi Arabian princess on the run is saved over and over again by a modern-day Einstein who never had a good reason for risking his own life in the first place. And once they're on the run, eluding the evil Muslim powers that be, the tension quickly fizzles, and Seth's "gift of sight" becomes increasingly annoying as a convenient and gimmicky plot device.

I had high hopes in the first quarter, but BLINK OF AN EYE turned out to be a poorly pacedand poorly plottedlet down by the fourth. I give it a C.
