About this title

Synopsis:

After years of trying to have a baby, Jack and Melissa realize a dream with the adoption of their daughter Angelina. But a phone call that comes nine months after the adoption is unexpected and devastating. The birth father, a teenager, never signed away his parental rights. And his father, a powerful Denver judge, wants him to own up to this responsibility. It is immediately apparent that there's something sinister about both of them and that love for Angelina is not the motivation for their actions. As Angelina's safety hangs in the balance, Jack and Melissa will stop at nothing to protect their child, and when a horrifying game of intimidation begins, it is clear this may be a battle to the death. Following the success of "Blue Heaven", C.J. Box is at his very best in this powerful and chilling new thriller that is sure to satisfy fans and blow away new readers.

Review:

Bestseller Box ("Blue Heaven") explores an adoptive parent's worst nightmare in this compelling stand-alone thriller. Box's convincing villains--gangsters, murderers, child pornographers--each provide a different face of evil, and each individual has to decide how best to get at the truth. As usual, Box blessedly reasserts that whatever the cost, such truth exists, and ordinary folk have the strength to find it. -- "Publishers Weekly" (starred review)
