Description
“Rick Mofina’s books are edge-of-your-seat thrilling. Page-turners that don’t let up.”—Louise Penny, #1 New York Times bestselling author
“Mofina is one of the best thriller writers in the business.”—Library Journal
When a killer tornado rips through a Dallas flea market, a kind stranger helps Jenna Cooper protect her baby boy. But in the aftermath, Jenna can’t find her son or the woman who’d been holding him.
Upon discovering the tragedy, reporter and single mom Kate Page, battling for her career and trying to hold her life together, vows to determine what happened to tiny Caleb Cooper.
As the FBI launches an investigation amid the devastation, Kate uncovers troubling clues to the trail of the woman last seen with the baby—clues that reveal a plot more sinister than anybody had imagined. Against mounting odds, Kate risks everything in the race to find the truth…before it’s too late.
“Impossible to put down. The exciting plot is edgy and fast-paced with many suspenseful twists leading to an intensely thrilling ending. Mofina is at the top of his game.”—FreshFiction
