'We've got your daughter.'

It's evening, you're back late from work - and the house is in darkness.

You step inside, and the phone rings. You answer it - and your world is turned upside down.

Your fourteen-year-old daughter has been taken, and her kidnappers want half a million pounds in cash. They give you 48 hours to raise the money. If you call the police, she will die.

Trying desperately to remain calm, you realize that your husband - the man you married two years ago - is also missing.

But he can't be involved in your daughter's abduction. Or can he?

As the nightmare unravels, you can be certain of only two things: that you will do anything to get your daughter back alive - and that time is running out ...
