ATF agent Jack McClure recently lost his daughter, Emma, in a terrible accident. Blaming himself for her death, Jack has yet to heal from his loss and the breakup of his marriage. Then his old friend Edward Carson calls with stunning news: the president-elect's daughter, Alli, has been kidnapped. Because Emma was once Alli's best friend, Carson turns to Jack, the one man he can trust to go to any lengths to find his daughter and bring her home safely. The investigation leads Jack on a road toward reconciliation and into the path of a dangerous and calculating man. As he journeys into the mind of this stone cold genius who manages to stay one step ahead of him, Jack will soon discover that this man has affected his life and his country in more ways than he ever could imagine.
Alli Carson, 19-year-old daughter of President-Elect Edward Carson, has Graves' disease. When she's kidnapped a month before Carson's presidential inauguration, her need for medicine makes her abduction all the more serious, and Carson contacts ATF Agent Jack McClure to find her. Narrator Richard Ferrone's versatile vocal range and skill are a good match for this suspenseful story. His textured characterizations capture Alli's na•veté and her growing fear of her captors, as well as her frequent hypnosis sessions. He also characterizes Alli's foreign abductors with believable accents and depicts the calculating genius behind it all with credibility. With careful pacing and understatement, Ferrone blends action and suspense to produce an unforgettable thriller. G.D.W. (c) AudioFile 2008, Portland, Maine
