Publisher's summary

Dawson Scott is a well-respected journalist recently returned from Afghanistan. Haunted by everything he experienced, he's privately suffering from battle fatigue which is a threat to every aspect of his life. But then he gets a call from a source within the FBI. A new development has come to light in a story that began 40 years ago. It could be the BIG story of Dawson's career one in which he has a vested interest.

Soon, Dawson is covering the disappearance and presumed murder of former Marine Jeremy Wesson, the biological son of the pair of terrorists who remain on the FBI's Most Wanted list. As Dawson delves into the story, he finds himself developing feelings for Wesson's ex-wife, Amelia, and her two young sons. But when Amelia's nanny turns up dead, the case takes a stunning new turn, with Dawson himself becoming a suspect. Haunted by his own demons, Dawson takes up the chase for the notorious outlaws...and the secret, startling truth about himself.

I was hooked from the start

I could not stop listening to this book. It kept me on the edge of my seat. Each time I had to pause I could not wait to get back to it. The narrator did an amazing job differentiating the various characters. I felt like I was watching a movie, not listening to an audio book.

Absolutely Gripping!

Where does Deadline rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

I'd have to say in the top five for sure and I have listened to a lot of really good books!

Who was your favorite character and why?

It's hard to pick just one but I guess I will say Dawson. He has a lot of hidden qualities to him that keeps you wondering.

Which character – as performed by Stephen Lang – was your favorite?

Mr. Lang did a really good job with Bernie.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

I was surprised by it a couple times but no laughing or crying.

Any additional comments?

This is a great story from beginning to end. Is is gripping and suspenseful. It has a lovely romance that builds slowly throughout. The plot has the listener on the edge of their seat to the last second. Sandra Brown did herself proud with this book!
