REVIEW: THE GIRL WHO ESCAPED by Mark Nolan is a contemporary, adult, suspense thriller focusing on the hunt for a killer. THE GIRL WHO ESCAPED is a cross-over story line with the author’s JAKE WOLFE series.
Told from third person perspective THE GIRL WHO ESCAPED follows in the aftermath of the abduction of four college friends in Miami Florida: Angie Taylor escaped and her three friends are found murdered in the back of Angie’s car. Desperate for help, Angie Taylor flags down a police car heading towards the scene, only to find herself the lone suspect in the murder of her friends when she is found with a weapon, coated in blood. Arrested, incarcerated, and assaulted by the people left in charge, Angie withdraws into herself, refusing to speak or acknowledge anyone’s existence for the next several weeks. With the help of Evelyn, a concerned nurse, FBI Special Agent Brenda Reynolds of the VSRT (Victim Services Response Team) contacts former combat Marine, Above Top Secret Black Ops specialist and attorney Jake Wolfe, and his Marine IED detector dog Cody (Jake Wolfe series) when it is discovered that Angie comes to life with visiting therapy dog Waffles. With the help of Jake and Cody, Angie makes a slow but long overdue recovery, and helps in the search for clues to the man who killed her friends but there is something or someone more sinister behind the kidnappings and murder of Angie’s friends, and another search of the crime scenes reveals the possibility of several more abductions or murders in the area.
THE GIRL WHO ESCAPED is a story of power and control, betrayal and vengeance, desperation and obsession, drama and murder. The premise is dramatic, edgy and haunting but I struggled with some believability, and the amount of negligence at the hands of law enforcement and medical personnel involved in the case; the characters are animated and determined. At this point, I am going to presume THE GIRL WHO ESCAPED is the start of a new series featuring FBI Special Agent Brenda Reynolds as the story ends with Brenda heading to her next assignment.
