Three Weeks to Say Goodbye

De: C. J. Box

Narrado por: John Bedford Lloyd

New York Times best-selling author C.J. Box's novels have been called "red hot", "edge-of-your-seat read[s]," and "unforgettable, powerful." Now he delivers a novel that will steal your sleep as much as it will wrench your heart. It's a novel about something that could be anyone's worst nightmare. . . .

Jack and Melissa McGuane have spent years trying to have a baby. Finally their dream has come true with the adoption of their daughter, Angelina. But nine months after bringing her home, they receive a devastating phone call from the adoption agency: Angelina's birth father, a teenager, never signed away his parental rights, and he wants her back. Worse, his father, a powerful Denver judge, wants him to own up to this responsibility and will use every advantage his position of power affords him to make sure it happens.

When Jack and Melissa attempt to handle the situation rationally by meeting face-to-face with the father and son, it is immediately apparent that there's something sinister about both of them and that love for Angelina is not the motivation for their actions.

As Angelina's safety hangs in the balance, Jack and Melissa will stop at nothing to protect their child. A horrifying game of intimidation and double crosses begins that quickly becomes a death spiral where absolutely no one is safe. How far would you go to save someone you love?

a great book that kept me guessing

I enjoyed it from start to finish. I would recommend this book. the reader and the author performed well it was very easy to get into the story

Good read

I love CJ Box's Joe Pickett books and this one was different, but also enjoyable. The first person voice threw me off at first, but it's well done in that he's speaking to the reader.

Couldn't stop listening.

As soon as I figured out the story, I didn't want to listen to it, knowing that the subject matter would break my heart. But, I couldn't stop, and the story didn't disappoint. This book was riveting.

Not Saying Goodbye

Loving all of C.J. Box's series about Joe Pickett I did not know what to expect with this stand alone. Well, I loved it and could not stop listening to it. I have added John Bedford Lloyd to favorite narrrator status for myself.

Love the point of view monologue

Narrator is awesome and the story is of course amazing since it’s CJ BOX. Kept me on the edge of my seat the entire time.

CJ Box at his best!

Great spellbinding story! Lots of twists and turns-hard to stop listening to! Thank you.

Excellent

This one keeps you listening - very difficult to put down. The story is written very well, emotional at times as well as some laughs.

Bond of love and friendship

Box succeeds again at writing another story of family loyalty and the loyalty of friends during a difficult period.

So well written

I Liked how everything fit together in the end and good people helped the hero out.

Beyond perfection

The publisher's review was accurate to a point, but did not come close to describing the complex story and suspense of this novel. Wow!
