Publisher Description
One of Kirkus Review's "Best Books of 2013"
The shocking end is only the beginning . . .
#1 bestselling author Jeffery Deaver has created the most riveting and original novel of the year-a race-against-the-clock mystery, told in reverse.
The October List
Gabriela waits desperately for news of her abducted daughter.
At last, the door opens.
But it's not the negotiators. It's not the FBI.
It's the kidnapper.
And he has a gun.
How did it come to this?
Two days ago, Gabriela's life was normal. Then, out of the blue, she gets word that her six-year-old daughter has been taken. She's given an ultimatum: pay half a million dollars and find a mysterious document known as the "October List" within 30 hours, or she'll never see her child again.
A mind-bending novel with twists and turns that unfold from its dramatic climax back to its surprising beginning, The October List is Jeffery Deaver at his masterful, inventive best.

“Might well be Jeffery Deaver’s most fiendish thriller ever...As the pace quickens and the story continues to backtrack, solid evidence, established plot points, and sturdily built characters all begin to come undone, until what started out as an interactive game becomes a truly unnerving exercise in deception.”
— New York Times Book Review

— Columbus Dispatch -
“A clever, demanding stand-alone…This is brilliant craftsmanship in a vastly entertaining package.”
— Publishers Weekly (starred review) -
“Perhaps the cleverest of all Deaver’s exceptionally clever thrillers. If you’ve ever wished you could take the film Memento to the beach, here’s your chance.”
