Propelled on a cross-country chase, devoted parents become desperate fugitives in a heart-racing novel of suspense by the author of Family Money and All He Has Left.

Thirteen years ago, Cole and Lisa Shipley were fostering an infant with hopes of adopting her. Overnight everything was turned upside down, when the child’s mother bled to death on their front doorstep. Her last words: He’s coming here…for her! Save her. Afraid, bewildered, and with a baby in their arms, they fled. The longer they hid, the guiltier they looked.

Now in a small Colorado town under assumed identities, they’ve been seemingly safe. But when a tip exposes them and Cole is framed for another murder, they take it on the run again, barreling across the western US—this time with a confused and resistant teenage girl awakening to a terrifying new reality. In the rearview is the relentless FBI agent who has never given up the hunt. And he’s not the only one.

Every frightening mile brings a family closer to the truth about that fateful night thirteen years ago. And to a killer who’s determined to finish what he started.

Chad Zunker does an amazing job at weaving a nonstop, heartfelt thriller through twists and turns that will leave you sitting on the edge of your seat. You are invested in the main characters in a believable chase through multiple states. Great book that you’ll have a hard time putting down.

Great Crime Mystery

Story was at times monotone, but the tale itself was good. Pretty fast. Sad as it seems, this story is so believable (well, except running from the stocky man). Glad for the end.

Amazing

There is WAYY TO MUCH ABOUT THIS BOOK THAT I LOVE, that I’m not really sure I could come up with anything that I didn’t like about the book. I guess the only thing being is that there isn’t a sequel to the book explaining what happens to the family after they go through court against that congressman and all the other nonsense they had to go through and figure out the FBI agent knew that Cole was being honest

Not knowing who the other “random burly guy that was after them”

It took me awhile to buy into the story but once I did I thoroughly enjoyed rhe adventure.

Unbelievable

Way too predictable, and some of the details don’t add up. Kept hoping for a twist

Very predictable plot

Not Our Daughter pulled me in from the very first chapter. Chad Zunker does a fantastic job building tension and keeping the reader invested. I was hooked all the way through. The pacing was tight, and the emotional stakes felt real. The characters were layered and believable, especially the central figures, who made me feel their pain, fear, and determination every step of the way.

What kept it from being a full five stars for me was a few plot points that felt slightly too convenient or wrapped up a little too neatly. But honestly, that didn’t take away from the overall impact of the story. It’s a suspenseful, heart-wrenching read that stays with you after the final page. I’ll definitely be checking out more from this author.
