Synopsis

2015 National Indie Excellence Award Winner for Best Suspense Novel

Imagine a helpless, pregnant 16-year-old who's just been yanked from the serenity of her home and shoved into a dirty van. Kidnapped…Alone…Terrified.

Now forget her…

Picture instead a pregnant, 16-year-old, manipulative prodigy. She is shoved into a dirty van and, from the first moment of her kidnapping, feels a calm desire for two things: to save her unborn son and to exact merciless revenge.

She is methodical¯calculating¯ scientific in her plotting. A clinical sociopath? Leaving nothing to chance, secure in her timing and practice, she waits¯for the perfect moment to strike. Method 15/33 is what happens when the victim is just as cold as the captors.

The agents trying to find a kidnapped girl have their own frustrations and desires wrapped into this chilling drama.  In the twists of intersecting stories, one is left to ponder. Who is the victim? Who is the aggressor?

This girl's likely one of the most recent reincarnations of Sun Tzu, prone to 'hormonal fits of science and desire'. (Whatever the hormonal fits of science might look like, sound intense!) She has some interesting calculations of romance and is overall a real hoot! Q: I had started to perform amazing......more

I really struggled to get through this book, I kept putting it down and then going back to it, reading a few pages and putting it down again. I can’t say it was a bad book, it had its faults but it had its redeeming features too. Just wasn’t for me I guess. I found the main character very hard to con......more
