2015 National Indie Excellence Award Winner for Best Suspense Novel

Imagine a helpless, pregnant 16-year-old who's just been yanked from the serenity of her home and shoved into a dirty van. Kidnapped…Alone…Terrified.

Now forget her…

Picture instead a pregnant, 16-year-old, manipulative prodigy. She is shoved into a dirty van and, from the first moment of her kidnapping, feels a calm desire for two things: to save her unborn son and to exact merciless revenge.

She is methodical¯calculating¯ scientific in her plotting. A clinical sociopath? Leaving nothing to chance, secure in her timing and practice, she waits¯for the perfect moment to strike. Method 15/33 is what happens when the victim is just as cold as the captors.

The agents trying to find a kidnapped girl have their own frustrations and desires wrapped into this chilling drama. In the twists of intersecting stories, one is left to ponder. Who is the victim? Who is the aggressor?

Fantastic read or listen!

If you like a story that grabs you by the shoulders and shakes. This book is for you.

very interesting and entertaining

hated the voice of one of the characters, I'm sure you'll be able to tell which one. other than that it was really good. maybe a little unbelievable towards the end.

All a Thriller should be and Much More

I am an avid consumer of the psycologic thriller and this one hits all the notes and asks us new questions about how we label people that don't fall within the DSM's tidy definitions. The author doesn't just decide a character is a sociopath - she invites us to wonder if all sociopaths fall within the modern guidelines and has us questioning whether under the right circumstances, they do have proper emotional responses and using clever backstories for the characters, presses on to ask: Can having a lack of emotion, when called for, enrich a person rather than diminish him or her. I'm not really doing the srory justice but it is thrilling, clever, and unique. The characters have layers that unravel as the story rockets toward a touching conclusion.

Great story

Absolutely fantastic story and great narration. I loved that it wasn't predictable at all and had lots of unexpected twists.

Love this book.

This book was so good I'm not sure I want to read any of her other ones as I'm not sure they can compare. Oh who am I kidding this one was impossible to put down. Lisa, Lou, Lola, not to mention chicken farmer Boyd. This is a must read of any true crime junkie.
