The actions in a convenience store one afternoon change the lives of a small cast of characters. MASKED may be just over 100 pages, but the plot still takes many exciting twists and turns.
Daniel's real reason for stopping by has nothing to do with the beverages, snacks, and wrestling magazines that he places on the check-out counter. He is out to retrieve information for another businessman interested in obtaining the property where...more

These type of short-story fast books are intreging, but because of the shortness of the story, the authour does not go into too much detail. Wheather this is the book for you depends on if you like quick books to read, or if you'd like longer, desciriptive or in depth type of books.
This book was a fast paced book, and I enjoyed it, but to me it seemes to end up being about social things.(spoiler) Who's dating who, who got who pregnate -which is in the book, so this is for more mature audiences.

Book review
I have read a book called ”Masked” i picked this books because it was not so thick, but it still looked like it would be a good book. This book is a thriller/drama. i think this book is for younger people that have some difficulties with reading english books. The book had a text that was easy to read and the grammar was easy. I don’t think that this book was that good i am more into action then thriller/drama.

Two guys, one girl, and a gun.

Many twists.
So what I didn't get was why the author even had Daniel in the book. He seemed like such a useless third party observer.Even though it was such a short read I was soo not a fan of the girl.
Good as a short story, but I don't feel any lasting impressions.
What a soap opera! I had a great time reading this!
