This week Vicki recommends a James Grippando novel called “A KINGS RANSOM, A NOVEL OF SUSPENSE”.
Just two years out of law school, Nick Rey is on the career fast track at a hot Miami law firm when he suddenly plunges headfirst into a dangerous bid to save his father, Matthew Rey, who has been kidnapped while on business in Columbia’s exotic port city of Cartagena. The ransom demand of three million dollars is far more than the Rey family can ever raise.
Fortunately Matthew had purchased an insurance police to protect against just such a treat, Unfortunately the kidnappers seem to know all about the policy and the insurance company, suspecting fraud, is refusing to pay out.
With nowhere to turn, Nick lines up with Alex, a beautiful street-smart woman who may be the only person capable of negotiating with Matthew’s abductors. But Nick soon discovers that the gravest dangers to him and his family are not the kidnappers and their guns but the men in suits, lawyers to be exact and a powerful law firm with something to hide.
“A KINGS RANSOM” is available right now at the Big Sandy Library.
