Summary
This is an interesting write with the theme of thriller-suspense for young adults, written by Tess Sharpe, an author from California. Each chapter is an alternate between the present event, a little background of "Nora"'s past life and a bunch of transcripts from phone calls occurred randomly throughout the story. The three separate stories goes back and forth. The present story being Nora with her girlfriend, Iris and her ex-boyfriend, Wes, were held hostage in the middle of a bank robbery. They attempt to figure out a way and save the public and someone the robbers wanted from danger. To build up the suspense, the next chapter will move our attention to Nora's background with her older sister Lee, and their mother. Nora's mother was the one responsible for Nora's multiple "personality" or in other words, she was responsible for the girls Nora has been. This is a good read for thriller-suspense lovers and those who love to satisfy their curiosities.
