A psychopathic female fugitive provokes a mother's vengeance in this terrifying thriller by the New York Times best-selling author of Gone South and Boy's Life.

Back in the 1960s, Mary Terrell shot and killed a man. A former member of the fanatical Storm Front Brigade - a splinter group of the notorious Weathermen - Terrell has stayed one step ahead of the FBI for decades. Living with numerous identities and menial jobs, Terrell's only constants in life have been LSD, psychotic delusions of motherhood, and murderous rage.

The '60s are long gone, but Mary is still out there. Now, provoked by a message she reads in Rolling Stone, she's convinced that the surviving leader of her old band of radicals wants to build a life with her. So one night, Mary sneaks into the maternity ward of an Atlanta hospital.

Laura Clayborne has a successful career and now a newborn baby. She's the type of person who is sensitive to suffering and injustice. But the kidnapping of her infant son has brought out a white-hot fury. She's not going to sit and wait while the FBI investigates. She's going after Mary herself - headlong and relentless - on a twisting and violent cross-country pursuit to get her child back. But to track a madwoman, Laura will have to think like one....

A Bram Stoker Award winner, this "expertly constructed novel of suspense and horror" (Publishers Weekly) from the author of Swan Song, Speaks the Nightbird, and other acclaimed works is "feverishly exciting...a page-whipping thriller" (Kirkus Reviews).

Love this book

I read this book many times throughout my teen years, just got back to it and the audiobook didn't disappoint

great read

flow of the story, loved the heroine, and the settings. left me wishing the book was longer

unexpected gem

where do I start? I just finished the Cabot series of 8 or 9 books. I truly enjoyed it and I was curious about this author so I tried this story. I enjoyed the style of this book. it's a different animal. the first part was written to introduce us to the mother of the baby that gets kidnapped. I couldn't understand why we went into such detail of this character at first, until the mother started on a mission to get her baby back! What an adventure! I believe if she hadn't have gone after this kidnapper, her baby wouldn't have survived. As a mother, I understand the drive of this mother. This story shows what a mother will do to get her baby back. What an adventure!

beautifully woven story

Another epic tale by Mccammon. Characters thoughtfully fleshed out and becoming important. The story winds through the lives of 2 women both desperately trying to become mothers. Reminded me of Mr. Slaughter. The woman were indestructible in their quest for the love of a baby. Don't miss out.

Always heard he was good, but actually, he's great.

Great horror story with all human elements, which made it even scarier for me.

RIVETING!

Super listen! A journey to Hell - thru it & out the other side. Filled with terror, horror & relentless.
The story & narration are
worthy of 5 stars +. I’m nowready to start another
novel by Robert McCammon. Only dilemma is which?

Mine.

I love Robert McCammon and had put this book off for awhile because I haven't found many female narrators I enjoy.
I was pleasantly surprised and the story, narration, and premise were all excellent.
I'd recommend to anyone who enjoys Mr. McCammon's books.

Great read

Fast paced - couldn’t put it down. Only negative was the fight scenes were too graphic and they went on and on.

good thriller, but predictable

This was the second try I gave this author. Some readers raved about him but the first book I read was the Listener.....pretty awful. It looks like his books are hit or mid.

Be prepared for a short ending.

The ending went by far too quickly. I feel like a lot of anticipation built up just to be shown maybe 1% of what could have been a great ending.
