What a thrill ride!, June 2, 2005
This review is from: Losing Hope (Paperback)
Martha Morning Todd delivers a suspenseful, thrilling, and exciting first novel with "Losing Hope."
Hope couldn't imagine in her wildest dreams that when her car breaks down one morning on her way to work, that she would be ripped away from her loving husband Jim and daughter Addie.
As Hope's husband Jim strives desperately to find her, Hope endures a new life with a group of clandestine people who live in a settlement near her home. The head of the settlement Jean Pierre wants Hope to have his child and had been plotting the abduction since the first time he saw her out shopping.
Hope is intrigued by Jean Pierre but misses her husband and daughter terribly. Will she escape this group of people that have maliciously torn her from the life she loved or will she submit to her intrigue and stay with Jean Pierre?
This story is an original! It is like a rollercoaster, full of twists and turns! It will keep you on the edge of your seat until the last page! The characters are well-developed and quite believeable. The setting is very well-researched and descriptive. If you want excitement, this book is a perfect read!

Intrigue and suspense!, June 15, 2006
This review is from: Losing Hope (Paperback)
Newcomer, Martha Morning Todd's first mystery book is a keeper! "Losing Hope" held me captive from page one, with its look into a sinister foreign underground right in our own backyard, and its exotic settings. I'm eager for the sequel. Ms. Todd is definitely an author to keep an eye on!
