No word for four years; just silence. Then, in the dead of night, the phone ‘Help me, Nan,’ begs a little voice on the other end of the line.
Alice is twelve, living in America, 5,000 miles from help and being used as no kid should.

With Danny’s help they hide out in Bayou country, but killers and police are close on their heels. Their only option is to escape to Canada. The route takes them back through a now dangerous city where no one can be trusted. Slowly, the whole mystery unravels, to reveal why Alice is being pursued. This thriller never lets up; has more twists than a Carrick Knot and an end that even the most jaded of thriller readers will find satisfying. DON’T MISS - SUNSET CHASING.

Dr. Jack Graham is the pastor of Prestonwood Baptist Church, one of the nation's largest, most dynamic congregations.
When Dr. Graham came to Prestonwood in 1989, the 8,000-member congregation responded enthusiastically to his straightforward message and powerful preaching style. He challenged the Prestonwood family with a vision for a larger outreach, and in 1999, the church moved from its North Dallas location to a new 7,500-seat auditorium in west Plano.
Thriving with more than 33,000 members, Prestonwood continues to grow with seven weekend worship services, four midweek services, about 300 Bible Fellowship classes for all ages, and multiple outreach and community ministries that reach thousands. In 2006, the church added a second location, the North Campus, in a burgeoning area 20 miles north of Plano. And in 2011, Prestonwood returned to its roots--beginning its third location, the Dallas Campus, about two from miles from its original location.
Dr. Graham has served two terms as president of the Southern Baptist Convention, the largest American Protestant denomination, with 16 million members and as president of the SBC Pastor's Conference.
He is a noted author of numerous books, including You Can Make a Difference, Lessons from the Heart, A Hope and a Future, Life According to Jesus, Are you Fit for Life?, Powering Up and Unseen. Courageous Parenting, co-authored by his wife, Deb, is based on their experiences as parents. Dr. Graham's passionate, biblical teaching is also seen and heard across the country and throughout the world on PowerPoint Ministries. Through broadcasts, online sermons and e-mail messages, he addresses relevant, everyday issues that are prevalent in our culture and that strike a chord with audiences worldwide.
Dr. Graham was ordained to the Gospel ministry in 1970, and has a master of divinity degree with honors and a doctor of ministry degree in Church and Proclamation from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary.

This has got great pace and action with lots of twists and turns to keep your interest. I particularly liked the characters of the cosy grandparents who set out to rescue their granddaughter from a sleazy underworld gang. I really wanted more of them but found the text began to focus more on police activity as the story developed but that is just me. The settings vary from cosy England to poor urban American to New Orleans Cajun and Graham clearly either knows the areas well or has researched them thoroughly. Lots of detail and colour here to accompany the action and the characterisation is great. Graham keeps you guessing about who are the goodies and who are the baddies right to the end although we know from the start that Bert and Molly aren't going home until they succeed in their mission.
