About this listen

Jenna Wade has it all. A devoted husband. Two precocious children. A wildly successful mother. A beautiful house in one of the most desirable beach towns on the planet.

And seven hours to live.

Kidnappers grabbed Jenna in broad daylight, right in front of her children and their horrified classmates. Her family was issued an insane ransom demand: $25 million in cash and jewels, payable by the end of the school day, otherwise they’ll never see her again.

As Jenna’s mother scrambles to gather the money, detectives Mo Butler and George Ortega follow the trail of the kidnappers, which will lead them through a sordid landscape of jealous lovers, broken dreamers, and twisted schemers.

But every second counts, and there’s one thing Jenna Wade doesn’t have: very much time.

Between competing detectives and colorful locals, everyone has a theory about who is behind this unthinkable crime. But things may not be as they seem ... will you be able to solve the puzzle before time runs out?

From the world’s bestselling author comes a fast-paced, unpredictable thriller starring Emmy-winner Sarah Paulson (American Crime Story), Dan Stevens (Downton Abbey), Patina Miller (The Hunger Games), Mel Rodriguez (Better Call Saul), and more in this year's standout performances.

Compelling, easy listen with a good storyline. Actors did a pretty good job. I liked that it was easy to listen to while doing other things but still exciting enough to keep your attention.

Being from James Patterson I expected more of a thriller aspect but this was quite predictable and not very edge of your seat. not the worst thing I've ever listened to but certainly not anything I'll be rushing back for. Big fan of Sarah's who did the best she could with what she had, will keep an eye out for more books she narrates in as she was an easy listen.

Sarah is the standout!
