The Tourist
"It's expected to be an excursion like any other. There is nothing in the records to indicate that anything our of the ordinary will happen. A bus will take them to the mall. They will have an hour or so to look around. Perhaps buy something, try the food. A minor traffic incident on the way back to the resort will provide some additional interest--but the tour rep has no reason to expect any trouble. Until he notices that one of his party is missing. Most disturbingly, she is a woman who, according to the records, did not go missing. Now she is a woman whose disappearance could change the world." -- jacket.

The story seemed intriguing when I began this novel, but then the story was never actually told to us. I don't have a clue what happened, who the central characters or the background authorities were, what the conflict was, or most especially who I was supposed to be playing in the story. Second-person narration is irritating enough on its own, but when combined with back-and-forth switches to first-person it becomes entirely incomprehensible. I wish I had not continued all the way through this one.
