Jeffery Deaver

In a race against time and nature, there’s only one man you want on your side.

In northern California, a small town teeters on the brink of disaster as flood waters bear down on it. Colter Shaw, however, is on an even more urgent rescue mission – a family swept away in the initial deluge. The clock is ticking, and their survival window is rapidly closing. However, the impending disaster raises questions – is the town’s vulnerability a natural occurrence, or is there a more human element at work?

Reward seeker Colter Shaw races against the clock to save a flooding town from a full-fledged disaster.

When a levee collapses in a small town in Northern California, Colter Shaw is brought on by his sister, Dorion, a disaster response specialist, to help locate a family swept away by the raging water. But after a surprise attack along the river obstructs Colter’s urgent search, the siblings are forced to consider a new reality: Is the levee at risk of failing from natural causes, or is someone sabotaging it?

Carmen Sanchez è un’agente dell’FBI che rispetta le regole, è ligia al distintivo e serve il Paese con coraggio e senso della giustizia. Ma quando sua sorella subisce un’aggressione da cui riesce a sfuggire per pura fortuna, Sanchez capisce di trovarsi davanti a un mostro inafferrabile, che non riuscirà a incastrare con un’indagine tradizionale. Il killer, infatti, oltre a essere spietato, è troppo bravo a nascondersi, troppo bravo a colpire al momento giusto, troppo abile a sfuggire alla polizia… E se lei vuole impedire che altro sangue venga versato nelle strade della California meridionale dovrà rinunciare ai protocolli e tentare il tutto per tutto.
