Switch by Grant Mckenzie
How far would you go to save the ones you love? Would you run five traffic lights in a row? Would you rob a store at gunpoint? Would you commit murder? Security guard Sam White's life falls apart when he arrives home to find his house a burnt-out shell with the bodies of his wife and daughter inside. Then he receives a phone call from a man who claims that his wife and child are alive and Sam can still save them. But first, he must complete a few simple tasks. Sam joins forces with Zack Parker whose life has also been ripped apart by the same sadistic kidnapper. Together they plunge into the dark, labyrinthine underworld of Portland, Oregon. And into a race against time to discover the identity of the kidnapper and save their families before it's too late.
A terrific little-guy-in-big-trouble thrillerthink Saw meets Payback moving at warp speed -- LEE CHILD Grant McKenzie really knows how to make a story move! -- LINWOOD BARCLAY A thriller that got me asking questions. Switch is a promising debut, a well-conceived thriller with no loose ends. Reminiscent of Dean Koontz. I'll be watching out for his next book -- LIENTJIE MENTZ - VOLKSBLAD, South Africa Think Harlan Coben on speed -- KEN BRUEN This is pulse-pounding stuff THE GOOD BOOK GUIDE
