A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

The world’s most powerful people have gathered in St Patrick’s Cathedral, New York , to mourn the unexpected death of a former first lady. Then suddenly they find themselves trapped within one man’s brilliant and ruthless scheme.

 

Detective Michael Bennett – father of ten – is pulled in to the fray. But as the danger escalates, Michael is hit with devastating news – his beloved wife has lost her battle against cancer. Grief-stricken, he has no choice but to carry on and try to save the 34 hostages – and raise his ten children.

With the entire world watching and the tension boiling to a searing heat, Bennett must face the most ruthless man he has ever dealt with – or face for the greatest debacle in history.

Revue de presse

In these post-9/11 days, Ledwidge and Patterson's scenario seems all too credible. Narrators John Slattery and Reg Rogers create throughly believable hostages and hostage-takers, and are especially effective voicing the beleaguered cop, hijacker " Jack, " and the reptilian villain, " The Neat Man. " Occasional music and sound effects don't add much , but short, intense  chapters make it impossible to stop listening to this well crafted story.―Audio File
