24 Hours by Greg Iles
Will Jennings, his wife and little girl are a happy American family, living in Mississippi. Hickey is a con-man and kidnapper. He targets his victims very carefully and takes great pains to make sure no one is ever hurt. He has yet to kill. All his victims have come up with the money and the authorities have never been involved. His perfect record is down to two things: One, he always stays with the parents or person with the money. Two, he never asks for money than they can afford. But when he tries to rip Will's family apart, he get's alot more than he bargained for... All in one fateful day.
Start with an irresistible plot, add a heavy dose of historical intrigue, mix a host of shadowy characters, just a dash of terror on very page.. and you have Spandau Phoenix, a scorching read - John GrishamMORTAL FEAR is a fine piece of writing and a tremendous thriller. In it, technology knows its place - as fiction's servant never its master - IndependentBooks such as MORTAL FEAR marked out Iles as a novelist of distinction and ambition but the level of achievement in this new book comes as a surprise; the author's ability to take on powerful themes such as the limits of personal responsibility (while never losing the momentum of an accessible thriller) is singularly impressive - Publishing News
