What a fantastic read! Such a great twist on an already-thriving genre. I was captivated from the first moment and the story held me to the very end. There are so few things wrong, I'm hesitant to even mention them because they didn't draw from the drama in any way. But I will mention one: Unless I missed it, I'm not sure how Sarah got the mil.5?

As I woman, I loved seeing her so empowered. Many great moments with her, especially the moment when she and the Stranger duck to hide from Cooper's flashlight. Surprising and powerful. Imagine being in this situation where you and the bad guy have to cooperate.

I would be thrilled if this script made it to the finals and ultimately made into one of AS' films. It would be extremely well deserved.

Congratulations on a wonderful job, Jim.

Really entertaining and thrilling angle on the hostage genre. Awesome female lead, tight pacing, descriptive script. Should be made.
Check some spellings and punctuations. The ending is cool, but you don't need the bus crash. Maybe some more dialogue between the brothers to show their strong connection. And a different title, since "Taken" was already, well , taken.
Very, Very strong!
