THE RESCUE Kidnapped, Book 3

Mark Turetsky and Christie Moreau bring the Kidnapped trilogy, told in alternating chapters by the Falconer children, Meg and Aidan, to a thrilling conclusion. Meg is still in the clutches of kidnappers, their parents are cleared of all terrorist charges, and Aidan and the FBI hunt for clues. The two narrators show remarkable talent for weaving the characters' parallel perspectives into a seamless tapestry. Meg's bravery while lost in the mountains during a blizzard comes through clearly, and her stern and often impatient inner monologues are delightful. Aidan's voice is fierce with loyalty and faith in his sister's talent for survival. The tension builds naturally. This is a great way to enjoy Gordon Korman's flair for suspenseful chapter-book adventures. M.F.T. © AudioFile 2013, Portland, Maine [Published: SEPTEMBER 2013]
