Synopsis

The New York Times bestselling master of American thriller writing returns with an electrifying novel about a mother seeking to reconnect with her children after a terrible trial tears their family apart.

“In this complex, surprising, and totally satisfying suspense novel, all of the moving parts, every character, every scene leads to one of the best showdowns I’ve read in years.” ―James Patterson, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Alex Cross series

Nina Morgan’s bloodstained car was found a decade ago on a lonely Florida road. Forensic evidence suggested she’d been murdered, although her body was never found. Her disappearance left her infant children to the care of their father. 

Once a pilot, mother, wife, and witness to a gruesome crime, Nina had to flee her old life to save her family. She reinvented herself as Leah Trenton, a guide in the Allagash Wilderness in northern Maine. She never expected to see her children again, but now tragedy has returned them to her—only they have no idea that she’s their mother—and delivered all of them back into danger. “Aunt Leah” will need some help, and an old ally has a suggestion: an enigmatic young hitman named Dax Blackwell. 

Never Far Away is a thrilling collision between old sins and new dreams, where the wills and ingenuity of a broken family will be tested against all odds.

Goodreads review by Jayne on March 28, 2021

NEVER FAR AWAY is a "thriller" that just NEVER made me gasp. Unlike Koryta's earlier "thrilling thrillers", NEVER FAR AWAY fell flat and, unfortunately, it was NEVER a problem to put this "NEVER" book down. NEVER FAR AWAY is about a happily married pilot who agreed to testify against her boss about a......more

Goodreads review by Alma on March 18, 2021

NEVER FAR AWAY has it all. A heroine you'll root for, a woman who has been through the fire and battle-hardened, ready to face a battery of villains you will love to hate. A battle of good vs. evil. And, because this is Michael Koryta, you'll be plunged into a new world, complete: the remote and spr......more

BIG TIME FUN! Never Far Away, by Michael Koryta, was big-time fun. Here’s an indication of how much fun it was. I have started every morning since Nov 9, 2016, with a cup of coffee and the NYT. Every day. No matter where I was. This morning, I sat up in bed, reached for the Kindle on my bedside table......more
