SHE ONLY STEPPED OUTSIDE FOR A MINUTE...But a minute was all it took to turn Jean Kingsley's world upside down—a minute she'd regret for the rest of her life.
STEPPING INTO HER WORST NIGHTMARE...
Because when she returned, she found an open bedroom window and her three-year-old son, Nathan, gone. The boy would never be seen again.
A NIGHTMARE THAT ONLY BECAME WORSE.
A tip leads detectives to the killer, a repeat sex offender, and inside his apartment, a gruesome discovery. A slam-dunk trial sends him off to death row, then several years later, to the electric chair.
CASE CLOSED. JUSTICE SERVED...OR WAS IT?Now, more than thirty years later, Patrick Bannister unwittingly stumbles across evidence among his dead mother's belongings—it paints her as the killer and her brother, a wealthy and powerful senator, as the one pulling the strings.
WHAT REALLY HAPPENED TO NATHAN KINGSLEY?There's a hole in the case a mile wide, and Patrick is determined to close it. But what he doesn't know is that the closer he moves toward the truth, the more he's putting his life on the line, that he’s become the hunted. Someone's hiding a dark secret and will stop at nothing to keep it that way.
The clock is ticking, the walls are closing, and the stakes are getting higher as he races to find a killer—one who's hot on his trail. One who's out for his blood.

I read this in two sittings. It moves along very quickly and kept me entertained throughout the entire book. It is a mystery about what happened to a boy that was kidnapped years ago whose body was never found. However, a man was executed for kidnapping and murdering the child. It is also about the man looking into the mystery of this missing child, and his life of hardship with having a mother who not only never gave a damn but emotionally and physically mistreated him. In many ways it is a sadI read this via audio and have never known such an enthusiatic and full-on narrator - excellent! So yes, this is a damaged man solving a mystery that involes his own mother who was horrid!I liked the story and the characters - I think I would read more in this series - especially if this narrator is involved! Absolutely loved his accent and delivery.Would I have liked it as much had I read the book? Not sure quite honestly, all I can say that is that it was enjoyable but not ground-breaking.(I
Why did I not read this sooner!!!?? WOW what a very suspenseful ride this was! It was action packed from the first chapter! I loved every minute of reading this book. I do have to admit that I did catch on the some of the ending while reading the book, however there was a twist that I was not expecting! The only complaint that I have is that it was so good I felt the action that happened at the end could have lasted longer! I was disappointed that the build-up throughout the whole book, should
Meh. I found it predictable and the background story was not all that interesting to me, so it was a bit of a drag to get through it. Clearly it's very popular, so I am just not the intended audience. I think if you like Dan Brown's The Da Vinci Code, you'll like this writer as well. It's just not my cup of tea.
I received this book from Librarything in exchange for an honest review.I have a backlog of books that I have to read and review and really was just trying to skim the first few pages of several books to see what I was in for. I started this novel and after about two pages, I was hooked. It is dark, many times frightening, crisply written and fast paced. I enjoyed getting to know the narrator, the other reporter that he meets, and the unveiling of his past at the same time as the mystery was
As another reviewer said, I really wasn't sure what Mr. Kaufman would come up with as an act capable of following While the Savage Sleeps. But he did. Boy, did he EVER!!! What an awesome thriller!! I've been waiting for its release for the last 2 months and it was worth every minute of the wait. The characters are so believable, the plot sucks you in from the first page and then holds you there, continually increasing both the pressure and the pace until the riveting end.Five stars isn't enough
