Timer Game 

A searingly page-turning, totally gripping, rollercoaster of a read that will appeal to readers of PJ Tracy and Harlan Coben (and anyone who loves ’24’ and the ‘CSI’ series).Grace Descanso is a young single mother working for CSI San Diego. It’s a demanding job — Grace struggles to spend as much time as she would like with her 5-year-old daughter Katie. But when a routine crime scene turns into a bloodbath, Grace realises that someone is after her. Then Katie is snatched from their house, the place where they should both be safest. Katie is all she’s got — and Grace hasn’t got much time to work out why and where she’s been taken. Welcome to ‘The Timer Game’.
