Alone

by Lisa Gardner (Author)

Synopsis

State Trooper Bobby Dodge watches a tense hostage stand-off unfold through the scope of his sniper rifle. An armed man has barricaded himself with his wife and child. His finger tightens on the trigger and Dodge has only a split second to react...and forever pay the consequences. Twenty-five years ago, Catherine Gagnon was buried underground during a month-long nightmare of abduction and abuse. Now, her husband has just been killed and her father-in-law, the powerful Judge Gagnon, blames Catherine. Mr Bosu was in a maximum security prison for the most sadistic of crimes. Now he's free...and filled with an unquenchable thirst for vengeance. A moment of violence brings Bobby and Catherine together - but what connects them is much more dangerous. A killer is loose. No one is beyond harm, and no one will see death coming until it has them cornered, helpless, and alone...
