In an extraordinary thriller fueled by as much remarkable compassion as chilling realism, Aljean Harmetz takes aim on a crime that strikes terror in any parent's heart with the eye of a sharpshooter.

Another novel that would make a good movie. An eight year old boy decides to show his mom what's what, and he gets taken from the local mall. An interesting study in how easily children can be brain washed.
