en Limba Engleză Hardback – 8 iul 2019
You just dropped off your child at the bus stop.
A panicked stranger calls your phone.
Your child has been kidnapped.
The stranger then explains that their child has also been kidnapped, by a completely different stranger.
The only way to get your child back is to kidnap another child - within 24 hours.
Your child will be released only when the next victim's parents kidnap yet another child.
And most importantly, the stranger explains, if you don't kidnap a child, or if the next parents don't kidnap a child, your child will be murdered.
You are now part of The Chain.

Recenzii de la cititorii Books Express

Anonim a dat nota:

It was gripping, intense, suspenseful and it has cost me 2 nights of good sleep. I would've given it 5 stars if not for the really bad ending. It didn't feel as real as the rest of the book and it kinda ruined the whole story for me. It almost felt like the story was going in a different direction but the author insisted to take this path instead, turning it into a bad action movie in which literally everyone knows how to use a gun.
