Eleven Hours by Paullina Simons

The sun beats down on the parking lot of a Texas shopping mall.

Heavily pregnant and not at all comfortable in the relentless heat, Didi Wood is leaving her home, moving slowly through the regular routine of shopping, husband, children, with the extra excitement of the imminent baby always at the back of her mind.

And then she is bundled into a car and kidnapped by a desperate young man.

What does he want? Where are they going?

Only the excruciating tension of the next eleven hours will tell.

Scenes of knife-edge drama alternate between Didi's anguished husband Rich, pursuing by car and helicopter with an alarmingly laid-back FBI man, who may or may not be as good as he thinks he is at rescuing hostages, and Didi herself, whose life is hanging by a fast-diminishing thread, ELEVEN HOURS is a tour de force of storytelling power from the bestselling author of TULLY and RED LEAVES.
