review 1: I only gave this three stars because I think it is pushy and preachy with the Evangelical Protestant Christian Agenda. It seems almost forced. However, the plot and story line are quite good. I found the story moved quickly and held my interest. I also only gave it 3 stars because the writing style is choppy. Overall though I liked the book. This is the second book in the series and I read the first one earlier this year. I do plan on reading more of her books. I choose them when I want something easy to read with an engaging story. I just tune out the protestant Christianity bits.
review 2: This is the first book by Janet Cantore that I've read. Abducted picks up Carly Edwards' story that began in Accused. Carly Edwards and her partner, Joe, have been throu... moregh a lot together. It seems that life is throwing them a bit more to handle. Despite the desire to reconcile with her ex-husband, Nick, Carly is finding that it isn't easy to put their relationship back together. In the midst of a shift, Carly and Joe are summoned to the hospital where his wife has been admitted with a mysterious illness. His infant son, A.J., is taken to the pediatrics wing to be observed. However, he doesn't remain there for long. He is abducted from the hospital. As Carly chases down the kidnappers and searches for A.J., her faith is tested with the frustrations of her relationship with Nick that seems rutted. The technical aspects of this story were astounding. Cantore is a former cop who brought her decades of experience. Unfortunately the technical aspect of this story also bogged down the storytelling. While the police aspect of the story was solid, the story stalled when it came to creating relationships between the characters. Instead of showing us the connection it was explained to us as if from a police report. Because of this it took me longer to get through the story than the premise of the story would have suggested. I plan on reading Accused to get Carly's back story. less
