Book review: Caught

Title: Caught
Author:  Lisa Moore
Rating: 2 out of 5 stars



Summary:  David Slaney is 25 years old and has escaped from jail (he was in for marijuana possession).  He's looking to reconnect with his former partner Hearn.  But before he does that, he needs to stay one step ahead of the authorities who are looking for him.  Slaney connects with Hearn and plans to make one last big deal before giving up the drug business for good.  Is he successful?  Or do the cops catch up with him?

Review: I thought this was a suspense novel but it wasn't very...suspenseful.  It wasn't even that eventful.  The book wasn't terrible, it just wasn't terribly interesting.  He's being chased by an undercover cop but there isn't a lot of character development.  Slaney is the main focus and you think you'll get more background on other characters but that doesn't really happen, at least not beyond a superficial level.  I liked the epilogue, but by then it was too little too late.
