Description
Robert Crais's Hostage is an intense and intricate thriller that showcases his mastery of noir atmosphere and brilliant plotting. When a random act of violence turns into a hostage situation, Chief of Police Jeff Talley finds himself plunged back into the high-pressure world he desperately wants to forget. As Talley tries to hold himself together and save the people inside, the full weight of the situation descends on him, putting his own family at risk. The hostages are not who they seem, and the home contains secrets that even a notorious crime lord fears. With superb characters in crisis, multistranded plotting, and pitch-perfect Southern California sensibility, Hostage is a stand-alone thriller that will keep you on the edge of your seat until the very end.
