Descripción editorial
A hostage crisis in Mexico turns into a deadly game of cat and mouse in this international thriller by the New York Times bestselling author.
They were on a mission trip to Mexico to help with earthquake recovery. But in Ciudad Juarez, the busload of well-meaning adults and teenagers became hostages. The ransom demands of their captors are explicit: deliver three million dollars--with zero involvement from law enforcement--or all captives will be executed. But rescue specialist Jonathan Grave doesn't believe in ultimatums.
For Grave and his elite team at Security Solutions, it's all about protecting the innocent. When the delicate situation explodes in violence, he must flee with the survivors. Now Grave must face the chilling possibility that someone within the U.S. government has a deadly secret to protect--one that could jeopardize national security like never before. . .
“The action is nonstop. Gilstrap knows his technology and weaponry. Damage Control will blow you away.”—Suspense Magazine
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
At the start of Thriller Award finalist Gilstrap's rousing fourth novel featuring hostage rescue specialist Jonathan Grave (after 2011's Threat Warning), Grave and his partner, Boxers, set out to save four adults and six teens ages 15 to 17, part of a church group that went to Mexico ostensibly to help with earthquake recovery, who have now been held for five days by kidnappers who seized their bus in Ciudad Juarez and are demanding a $3 million ransom. Grave and Boxers succeed in killing five kidnappers who step outside the bus in a jungle ambush, but they can't stop someone inside the bus from shooting dead all but one of the hostages, teen Tristan Wagner. Grave, Boxers, and Tristan flee for their lives, sought by officials in Mexico and denounced by law enforcement in the U.S. Meanwhile, a CIA traitor back home tries to ensure Grave and crew don't survive. Readers will anxiously await the next installment.
