Plastic Soldiers by W.D. County
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Pedophiles get big on the news, but we do not truly hear about those who supply them with their victims, kidnappers such as Eddie Pitts who only cares about making that next buck. He could care less what happens to the boys once he gets his money and hands them over. But when he gets Danny Mindel, a 10-year-old boy who still has optimism, the tide starts to turn. Danny finds strength from his plastic army soldiers and passes it along to the other kids held with him in any small form that he can. Will law enforcement and parents be able to find the boys before it is too late, and they are all gone?
This was a hard book to read, especially as a mother. IT deals with a difficult, horrifying topic, but this topic does need to be out there, because it happens all around us. The kidnapping of kids, their abuse and subsequent murders are there, we just tend to stick our heads into the sand. Well written dialogue and plot flow brings this tale right into your homes and will keep you turning pages to find out how it ends.
