The Professionals

De: Owen Laukkanen

Narrado por: Jeff Harding

Four friends, caught in a terrible job market, joke about turning to kidnapping to survive. And then, suddenly, it’s no joke. For two years, the strategy they devise works like a charm - until they kidnap the wrong man. Now two groups are after them - the law, in the form of veteran state investigator Kirk Stevens and hotshot young FBI agent Carla Windermere, and an organised crime outfit looking for payback. As they crisscross the country in a series of increasingly explosive confrontations, each of them is ultimately forced to recognise the truth: the real professionals, cop or criminal, are those who are willing to sacrifice everything.

Reseñas de la Crítica

" ... enough twists to fill a pretzel bag" (Kirkus Reviews)

A reasonable story line

A reasonable story line that seemed plausible. This book was written in a way that had me empathising with the kidnappers and hoping they would be successful. Good choice of narrator, Jeff Harding helped this book along.
