A missing husband, a contested search

Hannah Lyon’s work as a physicist centers on questioning how the world works; the disappearance of her husband, Adam, leaves her facing questions no one around her seems willing to answer. When Detective Aloysius Hunt’s assurances do not earn her trust, Hannah begins searching on her own, with their young son and the possibility of buried secrets shaping what is at stake. The setup brings together a family’s sudden rupture, a strained relationship with law enforcement, and a search that reaches into both spouses’ pasts. The publisher frames the novel as a crime thriller, with grief and an icy landscape among its defining elements.

Book overview

"No Prisoners is a high-wire act of crackling suspense with an unforgettable female lead. Amazing!" --Blake Crouch, author of Dark Matter and Recursion

A riveting neo-crime thriller in the vein of A Simple Plan, about a brilliant physicist searching for her missing husband, and the beleaguered detective in her way


Hannah Lyon is a brilliant, celebrated physicist, employed by a think tank outside of Albuquerque to question the very nature of how the world works.

And her husband is missing.

But not only is she struggling to cope with his sudden, baffling disappearance, no one believes her when she insists that Adam would never just leave. He was a loving husband, but more than that, a devoted father. He would never leave their young son Joe behind.

Detective Aloysius Hunt assures Hannah they're doing everything they can to find Adam, but Hannah doesn't trust him. Lou Hunt has done nothing but stonewall her at every turn.

With no help from the authorities, Hannah is on her own to find Adam and bring him home, but uncovering the truth means revealing dark secrets in her husband's past, and her own. Secrets better left buried.

When Hannah notices a red SUV stalking her every move, she takes matters into her own hands and sets No Prisoners speeding towards its shocking conclusion.

Twisty, gritty and evocative, No Prisoners by Ellis Blake blends heart-pounding suspense with an emotionally resonant, razor-sharp exploration of grief, set against an unforgiving, icy landscape.
