Publisher Description

When a man's family is abducted following the seeming reappearance of his long-lost brother, he'll go to any lengths to save them in this heart-pounding thriller by award-winning author David Morrell. Brad Denning is a successful architect living a perfect life in Denver with his loving wife and son. Or so it would be, if not for the haunting memory of his brother Petey who disappeared while under Brad's supervision when they were kids. Now, a man claiming to be his sibling has mysteriously appeared and Brad is eager to take him in, despite the man's haggard appearance and reluctance to reveal anything about his past. "Petey" is a welcome addition to the family, until a camping trip goes terribly wrong and Brad returns home to find that his devoted wife and son have been abducted. Certain that Petey -- or whoever he may be -- is responsible for the horrible crime, Brad sets out to recover his family. Traveling alone through America's heartland, it's a race against time as Brad struggles to get to his family before the terrible secret of what really happened long ago destroys everything he cares about.

    " I have read this book so many times I love it! "

    " I read this book a few years back. I had gone to the library to read through some periodicals - but my usual selections were all in use. Needing to kill time I wandered over to the mystery paperback shelf, saw this, sounded reasonably interesting so I made the decision to spend the few minutes reading this while waiting for one of the magazines to be returned to the rack. If I liked the book at all I figured I could always pick it up again off the shelf during a return trip and begin reading where I left off. It only took me a few hours each of the next two nights to finish reading it. A really absorbing, serpentine missing persons case that took some dark twists that kept me hooked. So far it's the only book I've read by Morrell, though I've managed to scavenge a used copy of one or two others by him that are awaiting my attention on my bookshelf. "

    " Either I've read too much David Morrell or this book was predictable. I'm guessing a little bit of both. "

    " This is a great book...it's different than the other David Morrell books I've read but still good. When a boy is 12-years old his 9-year old brother gets kidnapped...and then the story gets interesting...this event occurs during the first 10 pages... "

    " I don't think I've read anything by David Morrell before and after reading this one I will probably look for more of his books. The plot is tightly woven and the reader is guessing up until the final chapter. Strong characters. "

    " I liked this book but I must say that it was rather predictable at times. The mystery was interesting and back-tracking Petey's origins was real clever of Brad. "
