From acclaimed thriller-suspense novelists Heather Graham
and Jon Land comes a story of action, mystery, and the
endurance of young love in The Rising. Twenty-four hours. That's all it takes for the lives of two
young people to be changed forever. Alex Chin has the world on a plate. A football hero and
homecoming king with plenty of scholarship offers, his
future looks bright. His tutor, Samantha Dixon, is preparing
to graduate high school at the top of her class. She plans
to turn her NASA internship into a career. When a football accident lands Alex in the hospital, his
world is turned upside down. His doctor is murdered. Then,
his parents. Death seems to follow him wherever he goes, and
now it's after him. Alex flees. He tells Samantha not to follow, but she became
involved the moment she walked through his door and found
Mr. and Mrs. Chin as they lay dying in their home. She
cannot abandon the young man she loves. The two race
desperately to stay ahead of Alex's attackers long enough to
figure out why they are hunting him in the first place. The
answer lies with a secret buried deep in his past, a secret
his parents died to protect. Alex always knew he was
adopted, but he never knew the real reason his birth parents
abandoned him. He never knew where he truly came from. Until
now.
