Customer Reviews
Immersive & Realistic
Escaping Avila Chase is a fascinating, immersive and realistic read. I devoured this psychological short story in one sitting. FBI Agent Trevor Hobbertson is not only facing a cat & mouse challenge with a persistent and clever hacker but also with his psyche with guest appearances made by overthinking, ego, jealousy, rage and guilt. The parallel plots between discovering who Avila Chase is and anticipating her moves, along with Trevor trying to prove his worth in his workplace, are incredibly well-crafted. The climactic ending was simple yet effective, demonstrating the fractures of the protagonist's mind. My only contention was how short this story was.
Kudos to MK Williams for creating such realistic and relatable characters etched with attention to detail and excellent world-building. I look forward to reading more work from this author.
Thank you to the author for giving me a copy of this book. This honest review is left voluntarily.
