Publisher's summary

From Ronald H. Balson, author of Once We Were Brothers, Saving Sophie is the powerful story of the lengths a father will go through to protect his daughter and an action-packed thriller that will take you on an unforgettable journey of murder and deception, testing the bonds of family and love.

Jack Sommers was just an ordinary accountant from Chicago - that is until his wife passed away, his young daughter was kidnapped, and he became the main suspect in an $88 million embezzlement case. Now Jack is on the run, hoping to avoid the feds long enough to rescue his daughter, Sophie, from her maternal grandfather, a suspected terrorist in Palestine. With the help of investigative team Liam and Catherine, and a new CIA operative, a secret mission is launched to not only rescue Sophie, but also to thwart a major terrorist attack in Hebron.

But will being caught in the crossfires of the Palestine-Israeli conflict keep their team from accomplishing the task at hand, or can they overcome the odds and save countless lives, including their own?

Accents and Pronunciations

Mr. Berman did a great job, but should've done more research on how to pronounce Hebrew names and accents. Story is compelling and informative.

I really enjoyed this book

I loved the characters, and the storyline held my interest to the end. The thinking of terrorists seems so irrational to me. I can't wrap my mind around it. Both the author and narrator are favorites of mine.

Excellent story line and narration!

Am just over halfway and can hardly put it down.
This book is just as great as 'Once we were Brothers ' which I just finished.
