YOU CAN'T SAVE YOUR KIDS... BUT CAN YOU STOP THEM?
It's a week before the presidential elections when a bomb goes off in an LA shopping mall...
In London, armed police storm Heathrow Airport and arrest Sajid Khan. His daughter Aliyah entered the USA with the suicide bomber, and now she's missing, potentially plotting another attack.
But then a mysterious woman called Carrie turns up at Sajid's door after travelling halfway across the world. She claims Aliyah is with her son Greg, and she knows where they could be.
Back in the US, Agent Shreya Mistry is closing in on the two fugitives. But the more she investigates, the more she realises this case is far from as simple as it seems.
Hunted by the authorities, the two parents are thrown together in a race against time to find their kids before the FBI does and stop a catastrophe that will bring the world to its knees.

Rezensionen / Stimmen
An irresistible blend of high-octane thriller plot, nuanced characterisation and smart writing. Not to be missed! * Shari Lapena * A firecracker of fiction. Incendiary, devastating, wildly exciting. Strap yourself in and brace for the ride * Chris Whitaker * ...epic, thrilling, tragic and humane. Like 24 meets Homeland with heart. And damn the writing is excellent * Jo Callaghan, Sunday Times bestselling author of In the Blink of an Eye. * HUNTED is a damn exciting read. It's also a brave book. Nothing quite like it has been published before * James Patterson * A pretty much flawless thriller, HUNTED works on every level imaginable. Terrific characters are subtly and mercilessly pushed along by a plot as propulsive as it is constantly surprising. * Lee Child * 'Hunted is a phenomenal achievement, with its sizeable cast of memorable characters, flawless juggling of multiple storylines, and a political dimension that makes it more than pacey entertainment.' * The Times * If you're looking for a kick-ass, pedal-to-the-metal thriller you need HUNTED by the supremely talented Abir Mukherjee * Mark Billingham * A rip-roaring, bang-up-to-date political thriller that grabs you from the first pages and never lets go. Twists you won't see coming, nail-biting suspense and finely drawn characters that will linger long after reading. Unmissable * Steve Cavanagh * Hunted is a mature, intelligent thriller written with forensic skill and observation. This irresistible spiderweb of twisting fates moves seamlessly from the personal to the global. I was swept along on an epic and fast-moving adventure, crafted with insight, empathy and devastating attention to detail. Mukherjee has put the world in a book and I dare anyone to put it down. Stunning * Janice Hallett * A high-octane, high-adrenaline thriller where global politics light a fuse under family life. Chillingly plausible * Erin Kelly *
