The Hail Mary

Jacob Thorne wakes in a locked room, his arms and legs handcuffed to a chair, an IV in his elbow attached to a bag of saline solution. A note informs him to make the liquid last, as that it is all he gets.

Emma Kane is abducted by armed mercenaries and told that unless she finds the missing daughter of a ruthless billionaire, her partner and lover, Jacob Thorne, will die of thirst trapped in a hidden room. She has 11 days before his fluid runs out to crack a three-year-old cold case that no one has yet been able to solve.

This is the wealthy father's Hail Mary plan to save his daughter before she's murdered by an unknown kidnapper.

Will Kane find the missing girl before her lover dies? Do Thorne and Kane have a Hail Mary plan of their own, before it's too late?
