From the bestselling author of "Relentless" comes this new race-against-time thriller. Focussing on an ordinary person in an everyday context, a phone-call pitches a victim over the edge into a hostile world where lives are in the balance. It's evening, you're back late from work - and the house is in darkness. You step inside, and the phone rings. You answer it - and your world turns upside down. Your fourteen-year-old daughter's been taken, and her kidnappers demand half a million pounds in cash. They give you forty-eight hours to raise the money, and warn you that if you call the police, she'll die. Trying desperately to remain calm, you realise that your husband - the man you married only two years previously - is also missing. But he can't be involved in your daughter's abduction. Or can he? As your nightmare begins, you can be certain of only two things: you will do anything to get your daughter back alive - and that time is running out...This recording is unabridged.
