Doc Ford Series #16
So terrifying it'll leave readers breathless...
When a Minnesota teen is kidnapped, Doc Ford is given an unthinkable ultimatum, and only 36 hours to act on it. But there's something unusual about the boy that his captors don't even know, twisting this deadly game out of control in ways no one can imagine.
"Despite some confusing backstory and an unnecessarily complicated plot ... the action roars along as Doc does what Doc does best: kick butt." - Publishers Weekly.
"Doc's 16th suffers from subplot glut, but his fans are inured to that by now." - Kirkus Reviews.
