Seven Minutes to Noon
by Kate Pepper
Seven Minutes to Noon is a gripping tale about Alice Halpern, a pregnant woman who gets
caught up in trying to find her best friend Lauren, who is nine months pregnant. Alice
is waiting for her friend to help pick up their other children, but when Lauren doesn't
show, Alice becomes concerned. While Alice is trying to figure out what happened with
her friend, she becomes suspicious of someone trying to harm her and her unborn child.
Is a strange person following her to take her baby? Can she help solve the case while
still managing to save herself and her family?
Kate Pepper does a fantastic job in grabbing readers at the beginning of the story and
not letting them go throughout Seven Minutes to Noon. The suspense and mystery
holds throughout Seven Minutes to Noon. Readers will find themselves interested
in Alice's story and feeling that they want her to survive this ordeal. Ms. Pepper also
adds a nice side story regarding typical housing situations in New York City, in particular,
Brooklyn Heights. The setting of Brooklyn is not necessary, but does add a local feel
for people who have lived in New York City. |
