Child Not Found

Více o knize

For Aloysius Tucker, taking his nine-year-old cousin Maria sledding is all about frozen toes and hot coffee in the warming house. It shouldn't involve chasing after Maria as she's led into a long black car by a stranger in a Bruins jacket. But by the end of the crisp December morning Maria is gone, her mother is dead, and her father--mafia don Sal--has been arrested for murder. Sensing blood in the water, would-be successors to Sal's criminal empire square off, agreeing on nothing but the idea that Sal's blood relative, Tucker, needs to be eliminated. Searching for Maria through sub-zero days and nights, Tucker persists even as his relentless efforts draw him into a deadly crossfire between every power-hungry crook in Boston. Praise: "Daniel is more than generous with the violence, guilt, tweets, craft brews, and compassion."--Kirkus Reviews "[An] enjoyable if complex third book of murder and mayhem with a...satisfying whirlwind of a resolution."--Publishers Weekly "The third Tucker outing features a gripping plot and engaging characters who are sure to satisfy readers of Vincent Lardo, Joseph Finder, and John Hart."--Library Journal "By any measure, [Child Not Found] is a terrific book. It's got a gripping plot, characters so real you can feel them, and a narrative voice that grips you by the heart and won't let go. A terrific read!"--John Gilstrap, author of Friendly Fire and the Jonathan Grave thriller series
