point of view

"He'd promised Tritiny he'd find another way. But that was before he'd seen how easily things could spiral out of control." pg. 327 Scorched

The point of view in the book is third person omniscient, the author knows everything about everyone.

"Which was stupid, she knew, to miss someone who'd basically kidnapped you." pg 183 Scorched

The author is in favor of Tritiny, agreeing it's stupid to miss someone who had basically kidnapped you, so the author is bias against the "kidnapper".
