A family held for ransom

The kidnapping plot is built around simultaneous abductions across several locations, with the billionaire family’s patriarch prepared to offer cash, valuables, and cryptocurrency for their return. Standing against that plan is FBI Special Agent Nicky Gordon, who refuses to pay. The setup places the ransom demand and the question of how to recover the family at the center of this thriller.

Book overview

In this New York Times bestseller from James Patterson, six kidnappers pursue a whopping ten-figure payout in this thrilling novel.

Five members of a billionaire's family. In different locations. All kidnapped at the same moment.

Two children taken from a private-school bus. A film producer and a movie star grabbed at a hideaway resort. A beautiful wife whisked off the streets of Beverly Hills. A patriarch wants his family back. The cash, gold, jewels, and crypto are all ready.

There's only one problem: a brilliant, very stubborn FBI agent. Special Agent Nicky Gordon doesn't want to pay the kidnappers. Not a dime.
