Stolen

By: Margot Genger

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

What a tale! Exciting, romantic, dramatic, weepy in all the right places but not gushingly sentimental. STOLEN moves ahead at a good pace and Margot Jarvis Genger brings a warm, understanding, caring sensitivity to the problems of these people. I especially liked how all the lives of all the different characters came together and meshed at the end. Each person is deftly drawn so I felt I understood their motivations and reasons for their flaws.

The Backbone Fire is burning in Northern California and because of this, Isabel gains a rare chance to leave her abusive husband. But then Isabel surprises herself and steals a puppy, thus complicating her escape which is already riddled with anxiety and doubt. Through fear and fire, Isabel believes she must return the dog she's come to love. Her intended integrity and apology leads her to the crossroads: leave her former life, return to what she knows with a newfound strength, or walk forward into the unknown. Stolen is the prequel to Missing: A Humboldt County Novel
