Publisher's summary

24 Hours begins with the perfect family...on the perfect day...about to become trapped in the perfect crime.

Will Jennings is a successful young doctor in Jackson, Mississippi, with his whole life ahead of him. He has a thriving practice, a beautiful wife, and a young daughter he loves beyond measure.

But Will and his family are being watched by a con man and psychopath. A man who has crafted the unbeatable crime. A man who has never been caught, and whose victims have never talked to the police. A man whose life's work strikes at the heart of every family's nightmare: the unstoppable kidnapping.

But this man has never met Will and Karen Jennings.

Great book

Needs a prologue to sum up a year later or more, what happens to everyone involved.
This would greatly enhance the story.

Super Dad to the Reacue

If you could sum up 24 Hours in three words, what would they be?

Action
Improbable
Suspensful

If you’ve listened to books by Greg Iles before, how does this one compare?

I think this is only the second book I've listened to by Iles, but I will certainly listen to more in the future. I chose this one based the five star reviews of other Audible members.

Have you listened to any of Dick Hill’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

I can't recall listening to him before. He gave a great performance and I enjoyed listening to him.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

I actually did listen to this book all in one day.

Any additional comments?

I really enjoyed this story, although I feel some of it was beyond the realm of possiblity. I won't spoil it by pointing any of those actions out though. This was a fun and easy listen and if I could have given it 3 1/2 stars, I would have.

GREAT AUDIOBOOK and performance, Good story.

GREAT AUDIOBOOK, performance, Good story. The story was predictable and original, but Greg Isles always has captivating way of telling stories that are hard to put down. I love his writing style but prefer his other storylines. Of course Hills spectacular performance was on par with all of his narrations, esp for Isles.

Drags on

Good narration and an OK story, but to keep the suspense up the story is dragged on and on--feels manipulative. Could have been about 3/4 of its length.
