★★★★ 4 stars

OMG...I hate books that end without closure!! 

I'm thinking 4 and a half stars...maybe...because it had potential to be better. Don't get me wrong, it was good...but it could have been better. The constant leading up to Jakey's abduction seemed to take forever! It was almost like there was no real purpose to his visiting the school gates and giving him the letter for his teacher when nothing really happened there. In the end it was halfway through the book before he was abducted and I actually felt like rejoicing "At long last! What the bloody hell took you so long?" And the constant bickering between his parents. Actually, both mothers of Clara Foyle and of Jakey were much more concerned about themselves than anything else. Then when their children were abducted they were all pining for them. And both of them didn't seem to give a toss about their husbands.

And then, what happens? An anti climax, Clara's still missing, he gets away and then the threat of him returning. Jakey sees him outside the window. And life goes on. That's it? That's what this page turner results in? Like I said at the beginning...I hate books that end without closure.
