A six years old girl is abducted from one of the oldest towns in Tennessee. The ransom note comes in with a demand of millions of dollars. Dillard is hired in order to represent the parents of the abducted child. As the time goes on, he tries desperately to find the missing girl but his personal issues were causing great concentration issues for him, which were reflecting on the case. One issue was the return of the dreaded diseases in his wife. There was also a stunning appearance of his dad that triggered his emotions to their limit. However, he went on by giving his best possible input where a lot of twists in between makes this story more interesting.
The book was great but could have been better if it was longer. Audience normally expect a good audiobook to last for around 10 hours or so but this one is just a little over 6 hours. Nevertheless, the content and performance was excellent.
