OLDER FICTION
Easton, Tom

Seven Second Delay

(4) YA After a slow start establishing a dystopic Western European setting, the novel picks up considerably when Mila escapes from a detention center. Mila's experiences on the run are gripping, but flashbacks providing background are integrated in choppy segments, slowing the ride. Easton offers compelling social commentary on immigration reform and national security.
