Publisher's summary

A missing son. A kidnapper who's dead. Nobody believes her. Nothing will stop her.

When Doctor Jemma Sands' five-year-old son goes missing, only she believes that a vengeful patient has stolen her child. How do you convince police to search for a dead woman? As her world falls apart, Jemma realises she is the only one who can save her son. If somebody took your only child, how far would you go to get him back?

Ridiculous!

Where do I began? She should have told police what the mother said about her swimming. Never would I have kept quiet about my husband’s affair and not hired a lawyer and put him out. Why track down the woman with no plan? No gun, or nothing? Why trust her and meet her and not record their conversation? Than get in a trunk? Oh hell no! I’m sorry ! I’m too emotional. But I’m way too paranoid to fall for any of these dilemmas . I’m on guard all the time. Lol too much. Good story. But I guess I think she was just too trusting. I would have never left her untied after I bandaged her up. She would have been tied up waiting till I came back. And old dude would not have been able to chase me because I would have made him crippled at least before I left for trying to kill me!!!! Yeah, you got me ready to fight!!! Lol

plot with so many unbelievable twists

laughable plot, feels like author throw in the pot everything that is wrong in the world. Failure of the medical system, corruption, evil pharmaceutical, lazy police with political ambition, Nazi hideouts with remained medical equipment. .so unbelievable.

This was full of action and psychological thrills. To the end you become hopeful and endeared to the story and its hero

Ridiculous

It just got to be too ridiculous and unbelievable. You couldn’t even root for the hero anymore. Could have been at superhero/supervillain story better.

Pretty good

There were a few hiccups between chapters that felt like an abrupt end to the next chapter, but beyond that, not terrible. I did like the story.

Shame on the editor

The word prevarication was repeated 3x when the right word was procrastination. A six year old is not a “toddler” as referred to in the book; my grandson is six and he has not been a toddler for more than three years. A great concept was wasted.

Headache

The overall idea of the story was good. A lot of the dialogue was terrible and there were a lot of ridiculous situations such as people who've repeatedly tried to kill each other having casual conversation. I've never heard the word husband so much in my life. I will make it a point to not listen to any other books by this author.
