Ruin Falls by Jenny Milchman

** 2 stars

Meh.  Rather a disappointed as the set-up was pretty good.  The initial premise with the children disappearing from a locked hotel room was so promising but the whole thing devolved into a real mess.  The plot points involving the villain and his/her backstory were outlandish.  There was just too much going on with the history and character of this person.  A simpler motivation would have kept me interested but as the story wore on and I got a sense of where we were going, I was like "meh".  I have the author's first book on my TBR shelf, but I won't be in a particular hurry to get to it.
