Suspenseful Scenes.

The kidnapping of Inspector Robert Douglas had me on edge. I thought the Germans were going to kill him for sure!

But that would have been a bit too fast! But then, we would have never known. For me, a small part of me knew he wasn't going to get killed, but a big part of me was also on the edge because the way the author wrote it. I guess we were all waiting for something to happen at that time

Idk i felt like everyone got out of the tough situations a little to easy and smooth

My heart was pounding in my chest during the scene where Johnny encounters the tiger while walking back from the Temiar village. I was wondering if he would end up fighting off the huge animal, or if the villagers would come to help him.

But even that moment seemed to pass too perfectly flawless..

The parade scene was the most thrilling for me. It was exciting to see the expert teamwork among Sarah, Jacko, Jamie, and the gang. It was especially tense when they were trying to determine if the building guards were really Gurkhas or not. I was hoping the only fireworks in the parade would be the ones for entertainment!

I agree! Nd when the good guys go into the buildings and encounter the bad guys. That was the most suspenseful for me

One suspenseful scene was when Amal followed a tall man from a jeep into the Sam Poh Tong limestone caves when the man could have been Pieter de Groote who had murdered several people. It was so dangerous to go in alone without backup and no one knew his whereabouts!

I remembered this scene and I totally agree! This had me on the edge of my seat!

I think the author did a rather good job in the portrayal of the scene.

Me too. It was very courageous of Amal to do what he did.

Yes that scene was nerve wrecking. And at the end Cook arrested the bandit chief.

The most thrilling scene to me was when Lieutenant Colonel Peter Henson and the ten Gurkhas stormed the Straits Trading building. The description of the fighting was very vivid, and you could truly feel how much was at stake.

I have this funny habit of trying to read way too fast during suspenseful scenes. Sometimes I need to literally hide the next paragraph with my hand so I don't try to read two paragraphs as one time. Am I crazy or did anyone else do that?

I definitely do that as well. I skip the suspenseful parts until I know how the scene ends, and then I go back and read those parts in detail.

I can't take the tension or suspense in the story,so i read the climax first and then read the story from where i stopped. Does any body do this?

The most suspensful scenes were when they were trying to stop the attacks. There were all different kinds of attacks and many people involved. It was the best part with the most action.

Haha me too, I jump like 20 pages then go backward to see what happened?

I liked many scenes in the book and their detailing in many places we're beautiful but if only one scent then Johnny's rescue.

[darkay]

For me, the introduction aspect was captivating.

I love the description of the "art of abducting" Jonny, too.

I think that everyone has a soft nature. We just wish it is all we see all the time from every person.

This nature will make the society better, indeed.

Thank you.

This books is a page turner the whole ride through but the way the introduction entrances the reader is what's most important I think. If it's got the reader at the start, the reader is more likely to stay throughout the book.
