📒 The new thriller from one of the greatest storytellers writing today is the story of an extraordinary kidnapping when a poor mans wife is taken, but a rich mans ransom is demanded. This is a suspense novel - and love story - from one of the most acclaimed and popular authors of modern times. What would you do for love? Would you die? Would you kill? We have your wife.

You can get her back for two million cash. Landscape gardener Mitchell Rafferty thinks it must be some kind of a joke. He was busy planting beds of impatiens for one of his clients when his phone rang.

Now, hes standing in a normal suburban neighbourhood on a bright summer day having a phone conversation out of his darkest nightmare. Whoever is on the other end of the line is dead serious. See that guy across the street? Rifle fire shatters the stilllness as the man goes down, shot in the head.

The caller doesnt care that Mitch has no way of raising such a vast sum. Hes confident that Mitch will find a way. If he loves his wife enough.

Mitch does love her enough. Hes got seventy-two hours to prove it. Hell pay anything.

Hell pay a lot more than two million dollars. A story of love, tenacity and courage with the pace of a runaway train, from its tense opening to its shattering climax, The Husband is a thriller that holds the reader in its relentless grip.
