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 timeJosephe-Anne wrote: ↑29 Oct 2019, 18:34 The kidnapping of Inspector Robert Douglas had me on edge. I thought the Germans were going to kill him for sure!

Same here. The rescue was my most favorite part and by far the most suspenseful. I have these questions in my head like "Would they be able to do it? Would they escape unscathed?" I swear, I was literally lowering my expectations of them getting saved by that time.

I agree! I was really on edge when he went into the cave! I actually said "No! Don't go in there!" out loud while reading in a public place. Got some strange looks for that.

How difficult it would be, too, to rescue a delirious person and not get caught! I chuckled a bit when they mentioned having to use chloroform to keep him quiet on the way out

Some seemed to go back and forth! The leader of the bandits seemed to be ok and nice-ish ine minute then threaten to shoot you the nextMr Benji wrote: ↑18 Oct 2019, 18:31 For me, the introduction in the first chapter was captivating.
I love the description of the "art of abducting" Jonny, too.
Especially, for the scene where he was helped even by one of the bandits.
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.

That's funny! I wish i had this intense of a reaction while reading this book, but I didnt find many scenes super suspenseful. If anything I found them repetative and slightly boring

I would have to agree that the most intense scenes were those at theparade. One wrong step and things could have been really bad for the good guysDorcas Serwaa Adu wrote: ↑26 Oct 2019, 20:24 Most scenes were suspenseful and it became excruciatingly painful for me to sit still with all the dramatic irony flying all around the book. A scene like the one that dealt with the parade where they had to make sure there was no havoc, the MSS plan was perfect yet the bandits were gonna double cross that and that had me cursing villains (bad guys) for being so smart.
Amal going into those caves too, "sigh" well, really gave me the chills. Authors will make me die from too much anticipation running around in my system.

A few did slip away from the group. Makes you wonder what happened to them and where they ended upMbrooks2518 wrote: ↑28 Oct 2019, 12:20 I really liked the opening scene. It was so suspenseful and attention grabbing. I also liked the ambush at the end of the book. I was holding my breath while reading it, wondering if all the bandits and their leaders would be captured or if someone would manage to slip away.

I wish I had felt the same! I thought the story drug on. I had to make myself pick it up and just finish it to get it over with lolAnna Maria 86 wrote: ↑28 Oct 2019, 12:49 Oh, so many of them! Johnny's kidnapping, the team going into the caves, if they'd be able to stop the ceremony interruptions, catching the bandits near the end of the book. The whole book is so fast-paced and exciting, I wouldn't put it down if I could.
