Kill chain - Meg Gardiner

Murder is an art but the hitman's method is simple:

FIND. TRACK. TARGET. KILL.

It's a direct path to death, known as the kill chain - and when her father's car is found wrecked at the bottom of the California ravine, Evan Delaney must face the possibility that he has reached the end of the road... and the end of the chain.

The cops think it's suicide - but there's no body. The FBI thinks Phil has fled the country. But when Evan's phone rings and she hears the sinister voice on the line, her suspicions are confirmed: Phil Delaney has been kidnapped and those who hold him want something Evan cannot believe exists. Something she has only 72 hours to find.

Racing against time to piece together the puzzle, Evan follows a trail into the very heart of darkness. A trail that will lead her and her loved ones to their deaths... unless Evan can break the kill chain.

Evan Delaney has starred in four previous nail-biting thrillers - China Lake, Mission Canyon, Jericho Point and Crosscut - and come out on top, thanks to her quick wits and fierce courage. Is she strong enough to break the kill chain?
