When one has a child, a looming question is always "what might go wrong?" Having a child through adoption is no different. In the case of Melissa and Jack, one of the worst situations has happened: the birth father wants baby Angelina back. When the machinations of a high-profile judge aim to obtain his miscreant son's daughter, there is nowhere to turn. Lawyers, former friends, business associates, the police, even the mayor, seem to take the stance that the couple should roll over and find another child. Jack and Melissa have three weeks to try to keep Angelina, all the while knowing that they are prolonging their goodbyes.
C.J. Box's riveting page-turner THREE WEEKS TO SAY GOODBYE is a well-written and satisfying journey into rollercoaster emotions and gripping suspense. Action whips off of the pages and the words blur as the reader is compelled to race through to the last page of this masterful book. As well as an excellent story, THREE WEEKS TO SAY GOODBYE forces one to ask the question "what if this were happening to me?" and speculate on potential avenues of help and comfort.
As Angelinaβs safety hangs in the balance, Jack and
Melissa will stop at nothing to protect their child. A
horrifying game of intimidation and double crosses begins
that quickly becomes a death spiral where absolutely no
one is safe.
C.J. Box has once again written a bone-
chilling thriller that will keep you guessing until the
very last
page.
