Summary

"A superbly crafted and clever book" (The Times) from Greg Iles, the New York Times number-one best seller.

The perfect family. On the perfect night. About to become trapped in the perfect crime.

Will and Karen Jennings have it all. From modest beginnings they have built the life of their dreams and they share it with their beloved five-year-old daughter, Abby. But now, they have been targeted by John Hickey, the genius who has found the key to perfecting one of the oldest crimes in the world. Kidnapping. Five times he has executed his plan, and not once has he been caught.

This time, however, Hickey wants more than money. This time he is driven by the pain of his own family tragedy, a tragedy that he lays at the door of Will Jennings. Will, Karen and Abby face an unimaginable ordeal - and a terrifying race against the clock.

Excellent story - needs editing!

This was a great idea for a really chilling crime story, just excessively long and in places repetitive. I’d recommend listening as eventually it’s worth it. Just be prepared to fast forward some chapters! The narration is ok - not the best as again quite repetitive in tone.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
