Description
Rescue artist Jane Whitefield leads a deadly crime syndicate on a frantic chase with only one winner in this gripping thriller.
Jane Whitefield helps people disappear.
Now the bad guys want to do the same to her.
Jane's clients come to her for new identities when they're fleeing desperate situations. It's how she meets Sara, a young woman in serious danger who needs to escape. Sara's violent boyfriend found out about her lover, and murdered him in front of her. The killer was acquitted despite Sara's testimony, and now he's trying to find her to silence her permanently.
Jane can easily outsmart him, but he has supporters: a Russian organised crime brotherhood. On learning Sara is travelling with a tall, dark-haired woman who 'disappears' people, the Russians become incredibly interested, for Jane's knowledge of past clients could be worth millions.
In a bloodthirsty chase ending up in Maine's Hundred Mile Wilderness, one thing is certain: only one group will survive this.

Reviews / Votes
Perry delivers nonstop action, relentless tension, and such three-dimensional secondary characters. * Publishers Weekly * There are probably only half a dozen suspense writers alive who can be depended upon to deliver high-voltage shocks; vivid, sympathetic characters; and compelling narratives each time they publish. Thomas Perry is one of them. -- Stephen King Excruciatingly exciting... Another stunner from a modern master. * Booklist, starred review * Perry is one of the best in the business today, and his latest is a brooding, peripatetic stunner. * CrimeReads * Mr. Perry's characters come to life with a single sentence... He's one of the greatest living writers of suspense fiction. * New York Sun * Veteran crimemeister Perry adeptly weaves Native American culture, Jane's past cases, and her investigative and survival skills, along with some breathless chase scenes - some on foot - in this fast-moving suspense novel. * Mystery Scene Magazine * Intricate and exhilarating... delivers non-stop suspense and action, and I honestly couldn't put it down. A really enjoyable novel * Promoting Crime Fiction *More details
