What the critics say

In these post-9/11 days, Ledwidge and Patterson's scenario seems all too credible. Narrators John Slattery and Reg Rogers create throughly believable hostages and hostage-takers, and are especially effective voicing the beleaguered cop, hijacker " Jack, " and the reptilian villain, " The Neat Man. " Occasional music and sound effects don't add much , but short, intense chapters make it impossible to stop listening to this well crafted story.—Audio File

Loved this book from beginning to end. I was not expecting it to be an exciting thriller. Having two narrators was perfect. The story takes you on a journey with good honest family man and dedicated detective. There was not a boring moment in the entire book. You instantly are drawn to the main characters charm and wit and by the compassion of his family, and of course the thrilling twists. I think I will need to listen to this a few more times ...
