I am no saint, no martyr, no terrorist, no madman, and no murderer . . . I am a father. That's my story. Dr. David Evans is a well-respected brain surgeon at a hospital in Washington, DC, and a devoted father. But soon he is faced with the ultimate dilemma: if his next patient, who must undergo brain surgery, leaves the operating table alive, Dr. Evans's kidnapped daughter will die at the hands of an implacable psychopath -- and he will be forced to watch. Over the course of fifty-five frantic hours counting down to his choice in the surgery room, Dr. Evans races to hunt down his pursuer and find a way out of this nightmarish predicament. But just how far will he go to save his daughter's life?"--From publisher's website. | |
