Publisher's Summary

A perfect family is shattered when their daughter goes missing in this "brilliantly executed" New York Times best-selling thriller from a "master storyteller" (Providence Sunday Journal).

You've lost your daughter.

She's addicted to drugs and to an abusive boyfriend. And she's made it clear that she doesn't want to be found.

Then, by chance, you see her playing guitar in Central Park. But she's not the girl you remember. This woman is living on the edge, frightened, and clearly in trouble.

You don't stop to think. You approach her, beg her to come home.

She runs.

And you do the only thing a parent can do: You follow her into a dark and dangerous world you never knew existed. Before you know it, both your family and your life are on the line. And in order to protect your daughter from the evils of that world, you must face them head on.

What the critics say

"[A] greased-lightning domestic thriller." (Kirkus Reviews)

"[A] bombshell-laden thriller...the sheer amount of jaw-dropping plot twists is impressive...the breakneck pacing and audaciously intricate story line will have readers on the edge of their seats." (Publishers Weekly)

"A twisty, edge-of-your-seat thriller...to say more would ruin the sheer genius of...an absolutely brilliant, taut thriller that begs to be read in one sitting." (Library Journal, starred review)

Not bad, but a bit simplistic

Well, it's a very straight forward thriller. Still, good pace. Now downloading more Cobain

Average Thriller

I've never read any Coben before. Pretty good writing, if a little nihilistic. Besides the protagonist, not many characters with any redeeming features. The plot in this one is overly complicated. The plot threads are a little too diverse, too far-fetched to be woven into a realistic, concise story. Steven Weber is an above-average narrator. Good pacing, excellent enunciation, plenty of emotion in his characters. 7 Stars out of 10.

The book and the narrator! Dream combination.
Well worth the listen- and I’m lucky, so all the fives say a lot in my opinion.
