I think this is my second favorite of Ihli's books but it's pretty on par with Run on Red. It's a tense read based on the true story of Kari Swenson, a former biathlete who was abducted by a father-son duo in 1984.  Ihli is great a creating tense third acts but the lead up can lag a bit as the bits with Brent and Wes weren't as captivating as the parts centering on Miley.
