Fiction. Science Fiction. HTML:When a man's family is abducted following the seeming reappearance of his long-lost brother, he'll go to any lengths to save them in this heart-pounding thriller by award-winning author David Morrell.
Brad Denning is a successful architect living a perfect life in Denver with his loving wife and son. Or so it would be, if not for the haunting memory of his brother Petey who disappeared while under Brad's supervision when they were kids. Now, a man claiming to be his sibling has mysteriously appeared and Brad is eager to take him in, despite the man's haggard appearance and reluctance to reveal anything about his past.
"Petey" is a welcome addition to the family, until a camping trip goes terribly wrong and Brad returns home to find that his devoted wife and son have been abducted. Certain that Petey â?? or whoever he may be â?? is responsible for the horrible crime, Brad sets out to recover his family. Traveling alone through America's heartland, it's a race against time as Brad struggles to get to his family before the terrible secret of what really happened long ago destroys everything he cares

Interesting premise, and well written, but definitely not one of my favorite Morrell novels, which in no way means it wasn't good. It was an enjoyable, suspenseful read, that was thoroughly infused with the action I've come to expect from a Morrell novel. ( )

Not bad, but I preferred the Fraternity of the Stone/Brotherhood of the Rose/League of Night and Fog series. ( )

Petey, Brad's 9 year old brother, disappeared 20 years ago on his way home from a ball game. Now it seems Petey has returned. Brad had always blamed himself for his brothers kidnapping and now would do anything to make up for it, but the price he will have to pay is more than he ever could imagine. I really liked this book. It's the first time I have read this author. The story kept the reader so involved. You will keep changing your mind about the outcome right up to the last page. ( )

Fantastic story. Morrell has a real knack for conflict and suspense.This was an intense page turner. Well written. ( )

Vijfentwintig jaar na de ontvoering van Brad Dennings kleine broertje claimt een man de verdwenen Petey te zijn. Brad raakt overtuigd, neemt hem mee naar huis en stelt hem voor aan zijn gezin. Dat had hij beter niet kunnen doen; zijn vrouw en kind worden ontvoerd. Na een jaar staakt de FBI het onderzoek; dan gaat Brad zelf op jacht. Boek van een bekende Amerikaanse bestsellerschrijver die o.a. de 'Rambo'-verhalen op zijn naam heeft staan. Ook in dit verhaal gaat het om een soloactie van de hoofdpersoon. De schrijfstijl is direct door de korte, makkelijk leesbare zinnen. Het verhaal bevat veel spannende actiescènes, die zo geschreven zijn dat de lezer het gevoel krijgt erbij te zijn. De psychologische inzichten met weinig diepgang rechtvaardigen het handelen van de held en verhelderen de motivatie van de kidnapper. Maar het zijn vooral de sensationele actiemomenten die ervoor zorgen dat het boek in één adem is uit te lezen. Een simpel en spannend verhaal met veel actie dat een groot publiek zal aanspreken.
