I enjoyed the plot of your novel Abduction but I was seriously appalled by the poor editing. There were two flagrant errors that lept to the eye: 1. The use of an apostrophe when using a simple plural. "The Solomons" were frequently "the Solomon's" and 2) the use of "I" as the object of an action. This was particularly egregious when the object was plural. For example, "kind to Elise and I." No! Test yourself by asking "Would I say "kind to I?" If the answer is no, then "me" should be used.
You clearly have a fine imagination and gift for story telling. Please do yourself a favor and hire an English teacher to edit your text for these errors as well as for run on sentences.
I would not have bothered with this critique if I hadn't enjoyed your story so much.
