The story might improve
This book was okay, but I think it has a lot of unmet potential. I like that each character has a different goal. In the majority of books when the characters are trapped they all focus on escaping. I really enjoyed how this book shows that escape might not be the most important thing depending on the circumstances. I'm hoping that book two buildings the drama, and adds in some character development. If that happens then this series might end up being a pleasant surprise.

Molly is visiting her mother-in-law to try to escape the heat when she starts on the trail of a missing Irish immigrant. Can Molly find her, or will her pregnancy keep her home and safe? The plot was uneven, although it got better as the book progressed. And I am really tired of the usual conflict with Molly's now husband Daniel. Please, give him something else to do in the books!

2017 | Action, Sci-Fi
The last of the current trilogy and arguably the best.
It riffs upon established POTA tropes such as a believable reason for the loss of speech in humans and also the subtle introduction of Nova.
Effects are beautiful and animation of the apes with Andy Serkis continues to amaze with his performance.
it's a thought provoking story based upon a great escape/Prisoner of war type plot with a prison guard played by a very on form Woody Harrelson.
A fitting end to a better interpretation of Pierre Boulle's classic
