Book description
Life isn't going well for Myron Bolitar. His business is struggling,
and his father, recently recovered from a heart attack, is facing his
own mortality - and forcing Myron to face it too. Then comes another
surprise. Emily Downing, Myron's college sweetheart, reappears in his
life with devastating news: her thirteen-year-old son Jeremy is gravely
ill and can be saved only by a bone-marrow transplant - from a donor who
has vanished without trace. Before Myron can absorb this revelation,
Emily hits him with an even bigger shocker: Jeremy is Myron's son,
conceived the night before Emily's wedding to another man. Staggered by
the news, Myron plunges into a search for the missing donor. But for
Myron, finding the only person who can save the boy's life means
cracking open a mystery as dark as it is heartbreaking - a mystery that
involves a broken family, a brutal kidnapping spree, and a cat-and-mouse
game between an ambitious reporter and the FBI.
