Genre: Thriller
Once again the theme of what one will do to protect or save his/her child is introduced in this exciting thriller by Jeff Abbott. When we meet Sam Capra, his life is a mess. His ex-wife is in a coma after committing treason against the United States. His former employers are after him for crimes they believe he committed. Undoubtedly number one on his list of horrors though, is the kidnapping of his newborn son. Daniel has been taken by a criminal group known as The Nine Suns, and the only way Sam can be reunited with him is by murdering the man who is trying to expose this group.
Sam works in cahoots with Leonie, a hacker whose young daughter has also been kidnapped. The question that haunts them is simple...can I kill an innocent man to save my child? Abbott handles this well and gives us a glimpse into the minds of people faced with impossible choices. He also introduces supporting characters who are fascinating and add conflict to an already complicated plot.
I enjoyed seeing the development of Sam and Leonie as the novel progressed. Even though it took me a few chapters to feel truly comfortable with the story line, once I got involved I didn't want to put the book down. I felt for both of these people who as parents didn't know if they would ever see their children again. I also felt for them as moral human beings who were directed to leave all morality behind in order to save their loved ones.
This is a well written story that makes me want to find the next book in this series.
