UNCOVER THE VERY BEST IN CRIME AND THRILLER WRITING
DEAVER. DANGEROUSLY GOOD.
Words are the most dangerous weapons on earth – and Tate Collier has a consummate skill with them. He can talk his way into anyone’s heart, get them to do whatever he wants. This served him well when he used to defend death penalty cases in Virginia’s Supreme Court; it also made him enemies.
Then his teenage daughter goes missing. All the signs are that she’s run away. But Tate and his ex-wife, Bett, feel differently. When they set out in search of her, they soon discover that Megan is in the hands of a man with no morals and a gift for words, coercion and deceit as great as Tate’s.
And Megan is not the only one in danger…
