About this listen

It'll take more than a lie to keep Kirsten safe.***

A creative assassin.

A hit list hidden in a Doomsday seed vault.

A woman with an unusual gift who has to untangle the conspiracy … before it kills her.

Kirsten is desperate for a baby, but when she digs into her mother’s past, she discovers a shocking betrayal that derails her life. Will she uncover the mystery before the hitman finds her?

Why You Were Taken is the first book in the When Tomorrow Calls series, a futuristic conspiracy thriller with a high-tech twist you won’t see coming. If you like Christina Dalcher (Vox), Josh Malerman (Bird Box) and Justin Cronin (The Passage), you’ll love a series that brings together all their best features in an electrifying thriller by Amazon best-selling author JT Lawrence.
