[Kimmie · Rating 5 out of 5]

Very short story and the ending was extremely unexpected. I can envision a larger story from this one.

Ended too quickly

Good book that ended too quickly. Had me from the beginning and I completely fell for it; no wonder they did too.

[RBSProds · Rating 5 out of 5]

In the very short st0ry, "Extraction" (Kindle edition), A. M. Khalifa (author of the bestselling novel, "Terminal Rage") deals up a riveting, trenchant, page-turner tale. This time an Egyptian couple is entering a witness protection program because of the actions of a family member. The consequences of our actions can be far-reaching. Five COMPELLING Stars. 14 pages. Kindle.

Erm..I guess this book is a little harsh..I thought something good would happen when the couple were about to leave their house for ever and then when the police officer shot them...that was quite a twist and I felt sorry for them...overall I think this book is sort of ok.
