Run, Girl, Run: A Thriller

Run, Girl, Run: A Thriller by Alex C. Franklin
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

5 Stars. This is excellent debut full, length novel with an interesting, intricate mystery, which takes you from one end of the world to the other. When you start a new chapter, it was a little confusing, because the author tend to use pronouns and you weren’t quite sure whose point of view you were reading. There were a lot of characters, which made it harder to figure out who was telling the story. The Author Alex C. Franklin did a lot of research on the politics and environmental issues, along with police procedurals, assassins and everything else. At times it was a little hard to understand for me, just because I didn’t know all about some issues or procedures, so I had to do some checking on my own. However, a little over half way through, I was being so drawn in, that I didn’t want to put the book down and enjoying it more and more.

Stella Jacob is an environmental activist, living a quiet life in Canada; she witnesses a spill of radioactive waste. She wants the company responsible to be held accountable, and then everything takes a turn for the worse. An American in Monaco is killed, an FBI director is suspected of foul play along with the US Secretary of State.

This is an international thriller that will keep you guessing, on the edge of your seat, and bring out emotions that you never thought you’d display by reading this enjoyable book!
