Hiding in Sunshine Book Review!
I am so glad that I received this book from Influenster to review. I probably would have never looked twice at it on my own. First thing I thought was interesting was this book is written by a father-daughter team, which I thought was cute, but I was kind of skeptical...As I started reading I had already prepared myself to only be mildly interested, but that was not the case at all! This book is very intense! It is a "page-turner" for sure! It is a little scary, and not in your usual vampire, witch, ghost kind of way. It's scary because cyber-terrorists really exist and your life can be turned upside down in a matter of moments! This book kept me on the edge of my seat and I rarely put it down from start to finish! I've already passed this book off to a friend. I think that is the test of a good book!
Plot:
Living lives of quiet affluence in a historic, suburban Boston town, Gavin and Lisa Brinkley had no idea how quickly and decisively their lives, and those of their two young daughters, could be upended. A series of events - a mysterious break-in at their home, some menacing tailgating on the highway from Boston, a startling visit from an F.B.I. agent warning of an imminent kidnapping attempt - leads to the family's abrupt uprooting from its comfortable existence into a terrifying new existence on the run, under new identities. This taut thriller by a father-daughter team follows the eleven-year odyssey of an American family on the run, in hiding through the mountain states of the American west, where survival skills and living off the grid are paramount, but so are friendship, cooperation, and resilience. The enemy, always lurking just out of sight, is a foreign cyber-criminal enterprise that launches breathtaking assaults on the American banking system and physical infrastructure, but the Brinkleys also know that the threat is deeply personal, reaching ever closer to them from the shadows of the past. At the same time, Gavin and Lisa discover the perils of wandering too close to the edges of the dark side, in the murky world of cyber-security. A compelling story of suspense and treachery, HIDING IN SUNSHINE is also a celebration of a family's abiding love and courage -- and a young girl's faith in the triumph of the truth.
