Editorial Reviews
From Publishers Weekly
Barclay (Bad Guys) tugs hard on the heartstrings with the tragic tale of Cynthia Bigge, whose parents and brother vanished without a trace the day after she had a tempestuous teenage argument with her father. Twenty-five years later, raising a daughter with her husband, Terrence Archer, in Milford, Conn., but still haunted by her family's disappearance, Cynthia goes on TV to talk about what happened and plead for clues. A mysterious phone call leads her to believe her father, at least, may still be alive, but as her excitement grows, so do Terrence's worries. It soon appears that someone is playing a unexpectedly vicious game with Cynthia's emotions, and that her family held secrets she never suspected. Though some plot twists require significant suspension of disbelief, skilled characterization and convincing dialogue more than compensate. (Oct.)

A mystery masterpiece is read by a master narrator. Fourteen-year-old Cynthia Bigge storms off to bed after her angry father finds her partying with her tough boyfriend. When she awakens the next morning, her parents and brother have disappeared. Twenty-five years later, Cynthia, now married to Terry, a high school teacher, is featured on a TV special that examines her family mystery. The broadcast sets off a series of strange and threatening incidents. Christopher Lane, as a strong, sympathetic Terry, takes us deep into the perilous journey to find the truth, and prevent Cynthia from meeting the same fate as her family. Lane exploits Barclays breathtaking momentum, building to an edge-of-the-seat climax and superbly portraying every character--killers, detectives, friends, a memorable mobster, and his comical gang. Not to be missed! M.T.B. Winner of AudioFile Earphones Award © AudioFile 2008, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine --This text refers to the Audio CD edition.
