A dog is harmed in this book, but he gets his own back.

🎼Face your fears...knock down a wasps nest...hide from your kidnappers...'cause you are amazing...🎼

This bit reminds me of a stealth game. Why hasn't this book gotten a movie option? It seems perfect for it.

Yes, smart kid, Jeremy!

The tension of having lots of little pieces of a plan, but nothing to tie them together yet, is really well done.

Yes! Love a proactive hero!

The contrast of Darcy cleaning out the treehouse for Diana and the kidnappers not even dusting a room they expected three kids to sleep in. Lucky none of them is asthmatic.

Stealing the housekeeper's car with the garage door opener was actually a good plan, good criming

Trust your gut, Darcy!

(Although wild that they didn't send the kids to the neighbors or something, given that there was a clear break-in attempt.)

Oof, although the fact that Diana's parents called the cops reminds me: If you see anyone online looking for a missing significant other, especially if it's a man searching for a woman, it's almost always an abuser looking for a victim who's escaped them. The vast majority of cases reported to the FBI turn out that way, and that's with some barriers in place.

Do NOT amplify those requests; report them to the site.
