Sleeper’s Run

Reviewed by Kam Aures for Rebecca’s Reads (11/11)

“Most people ignore the homeless man stumbling along the boardwalk.  The few that notice him do so with usual disdain.  But to the most observant, it soon becomes clear that there’s something out of place about this man.  His tall body looks strong and athletic, instead of the usual emaciated bag of bones one can find perched on a street corner asking for spare change.  The man’s wrinkled shirt and jeans aren’t ill-fitting donations, but quite stylish; just like his watch and shoes.”  (p.1)

This man turns out to be Eric Caine, who has been reported missing for eight days after a car accident.  He is a veteran suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder.  Shortly after he is found, he has an encounter with a gentleman in a bar that will change his life forever.  The employment offer he receives from this meeting has him eventually relocate to Venezuela, his former homeland.  From here, the action begins as he discovers he is being tailed.

I found “Sleeper’s Run” to have an interesting plot and intriguing characters. Mosquera does a good job with character development, most particularly with the main character, Eric Caine.   I was drawn in right away to the story in the opening pages and my interest was held throughout.  I did find some areas of the book to be a little choppy though.  There just seemed to be some hiccups in the smooth flow of the plot.  Other than that minor distraction, “Sleeper’s Run” is a book that fans of suspense and espionage should enjoy.
