Vanished

"This story is very much like a mystery. Murder, crooked cops, secrets, kidnap and, love sounds like a great novel to me. I'm intrigued and happy that this isn't the normal mystery novel. In anticipation of reading the sequel I'm putting it in my library early."

Laborious detail

"I picked this story because at the time it was in the Thriller top 20 on Inkitt. It was very difficult to read. The entire first chapter is spent mostly describing (in laborious detail) Nadine choosing her outfit and getting the tube to a club. Almost 800 words could have been condensed to "I tentatively selected a figure-hugging red dress and took the tube to Embankment". Other than that, basically nothing happens in that entire two paragraphs. The pattern of unnecessary detail and lack of substance continues and peaks in chapter 13, when the author literally copies and pastes the Google entries for three drugs, including phonetic spellings! The characters don't sound like real people. The punctuation and writing style is very underdeveloped. The whole story feels like it was written by a young, inexperienced author. She may well go on to hone her craft and do great things. But there are experienced, talented authors here on Inkitt and this novel falls well short of the standard."
