The new thriller featuring ex-soldier Peter Ash by award-winning American author Nick Petrie. When Peter Ash receives a four a.m. phone call to help out a former criminal, it's just the start of a whirlwind which drags Peter into its centre. The man in question, Wilson, is missing from his home in upstate Wisconsin. When he is eventually found, nearly frozen in the woods near his isolated home, Wilson starts to open up about many things: his criminal past, a rogue therapist, and tales of evidence that proves of great interest to foreign gangsters. Soon, Peter and his associates are in a race against time to find the evidence – and stop the bloodshed . . . The latest propulsive thriller in this bestselling and award-winning series is for fans of Lee Child, David Baldacci and Jordan Harper. Reviewers on Nick Petrie: 'Stunning... The pace is like a sniper round, extraordinarily fast and precisely calibrated.' David Baldacci 'If you aren't reading Nick Petrie, now is the time to start.' C.J.
