Audra Kinney is living a nightmare. She is trying to escape
an abusive husband who was crafty enough to manipulate her such that he stands
to be able to keep the children from her. When she finally makes the decision
to take her children far away from him, the nightmare takes of a chilling new
turn. Behind bars and with her children missing, Audra must find a way to save
her family and get out of the mess she is in.
The first few chapters in Here and Gone set the stage and introduce a variety of characters
and situations, but once you get about 10 chapters in (chapters are short), it
gets very difficult to stop reading. As the mother of young children myself, I
connected with Audra’s maternal instincts and the hopelessness of her plight. I
also enjoyed reading about a character that connects with her inner strength to
boldly overcome an impossible situation. Mr. Beck does an excellent job weaving
a thrilling tale of deceit and treachery that will keep your attention and hold
it even once the book has ended.
I don’t recommend this book for young readers as it has
adult themes, including abuse. But I highly recommend it for the mature reader
who has a stomach for some difficult but very realistic scenarios.
