GONE by James Petterson & Company ***

The story was mildly interesting, but not what I like to read. Gangs, killings, hiding Michael Bennets extended brood of adopted kids. He leaves them to go chasing a killer he has a personal issue with. He apparently caught Perrine once and he escaped. So he's off chasing him down again.

Quite a few red herrings, or twists that's supposed to keep you from being bored. One of the FBI agents (supposedly) gets kidnapped by the bad people who want to know where Bennet is hiding his family and nanny, her name is Agent Mara. As soon as someone lays a hammer down on her elbow she's squealing like a little pig where she believes the children are being stashed. Does she not know that no matter what she does or says she will be killed? She's a frickin FBI agent. Apparently without any negotiating skills, no survival skills (she got caught right?), no loyalty skills and no brain. Soon as she begins vomiting out information they kill her. NO DUH. Did she think she'd remain alive after the torture? Isn't she an FBI agent with a brain in her head? Guess not. Must be tiny brain.

She rats out the family and they kill her. They also kill some innocent priest, I'm not sure if it's the one who helped the family or the one who spouted his god crap in the town. Why is religion shoved in my face? Why? I don't like that. So only 3 little stars. Get through it all you atheists, Buddhists and agnostics. Good for the soul. LOL

HOW AMUSING IS IT THAT I PICK A BOOK CALLED "GONE" AND READ ONE RIGHT BEFORE THIS CALLED "FOUND"???? LOL
