The Unseen - T.L. Hines
Lucas is a loner, but he’s never alone.
From page one, this novel pulls you in. It’s interesting to learn how this man sneaks around and spies on others. How he longs for a connection, but pushes those people he knows in person away. He’s afraid for a “real” connection, so he settles for the lives he creates for those he spies on.
When someone shows up near his current living space things start to turn around. He goes from being the spy to being spied on.
With such an intriguing start I was keyed up for an intriguing story to test my intelligence and challenge me. The story did deliver many twists and turns, unexpected story turns, and side plots.
Unfortunately for me, after so many twists and turns I felt it fell a bit flat. With so many plot threads to keep track of, several were never wrapped up. The ending had me staring at the book saying, “All of that for…what?”
An intriguing start with a muddled middle, and a disappointing end. Even the action packed sequence before the final shoe dropped didn’t keep me on the edge of my seat.
In the end I really WANTED to like this book. I’m afraid it didn’t happen.
