I have no idea who the author is, only initials are given and a very brief bio, and it's his only book.
I don't even remember when/how I got the book, though the Amazon order page says I got it for free... it sat on my Kindle for a while until I decided to start reading it on a whim, even though the reviews are few and poor, (2 one star reviews, 1 3 star, and 1 5 star), some of which said they didn't even bother reading the book.
I wouldn't say it's the most amazingly awesome book I've ever read, but it most definitely doesn't deserve 1 star ratings, more of a 4 in my mind, and for a self-pub it was well formatted and I only found a few minor editing mistakes. :-)
Anyhow... no association with the author (like I said, I don't even know who the author is), but I think it's a good enough book that it deserves to be pulled out of obscurity, and is definitely worth the $.99 current price, so here's my recommendation... if you're one who's willing to take risks on unknown authors, I recommend this book as a fast and fun read.
How To Rescue Children That Don't Exist

Quote:
Tristan Evans is a ten year old boy.
At this moment in time, he is missing.
There is not a person in England who hasn't heard of the missing Tristan, or seen a picture of the mousey haired boy with grey eyes. Unfortunately, since he disappeared, no-one has seen Tristan.
That is, except for one person:
Me.
I know where the boy is. I know he is alive, and that he is safe. In normal circumstances, this might make me a national hero. However, these are not normal circumstances and as such, normal rules do not apply.
One of those rules is that I'm not allowed to tell anyone that I know he is alive. If I do, no-one will ever see him again.
In other words, he is a hostage. And, somehow, I've gotten stuck in the middle, between the parents who understandably want him back and between those who will keep Tristan locked away until their demands are met. And let me tell you this: it's much harder to negotiate when you're not allowed to mention what you're negotiating for.
And it's even harder when you're not sure what you're negotiating for.
Hello, my name is Beige, and I'm in hell.
