Alex Cross' family is in terrible danger - at the same time that his new job with the FBI brings him the scariest case of his career.
A team of kidnappers has been snatching successful, upstanding men and women right before their families' eyes - possibly to sell them into slavery. Alex's knowledge of the DC streets, together with his unique insights into criminal psychology, make this mind-bending case one that only he can solve - if he can just get his colleagues to set aside their staid and outdated methods.
With unexpected twists and whiplash surprises, this is another brilliantly irresistible novel from America's bestselling suspense writer.
