A New York lawyer gets wrapped up in a deadly conspiracy in this “legal thriller that really thrills” by the author of Pardon the Ravens (Phoef Sutton, New York Times–bestselling author).
At two in the morning, after another long night at work, brash young lawyer Tom Weldon learns that he’s being passed over for partner at his top-drawer New York firm. Maybe his response is rash, or maybe it was a long time coming, but he quits on the spot. Now Tom knows his life is about to change. He just has no idea how different—and dangerous—it’s about to get.
On his walk home, Tom discovers a professional hit in progress—and attempting to stop the attack only gets him knocked out. Suddenly, he finds himself held captive in a rural shed somewhere in Pennsylvania. And he’s not alone. The daughter of the murder victim, beautiful playwright Elena Riles, has also been taken hostage. Miles from nowhere, getting out alive will only be the start of their troubles. As Tom and Elena head into Kentucky to evade their captors, they also work feverishly to unravel a criminal conspiracy in this fast-moving thriller.
“It hits hard and you keep off balance until the last page. I couldn’t put it down.” —Phoef Sutton, New York Times–bestselling author of Heart Attack and Vine
