Summary

A psychopathic female fugitive provokes a mother's vengeance in this terrifying thriller by the New York Times best-selling author of Gone South and Boy's Life.

Back in the 1960s, Mary Terrell shot and killed a man. A former member of the fanatical Storm Front Brigade - a splinter group of the notorious Weathermen - Terrell has stayed one step ahead of the FBI for decades. Living with numerous identities and menial jobs, Terrell's only constants in life have been LSD, psychotic delusions of motherhood, and murderous rage.

The '60s are long gone, but Mary is still out there. Now, provoked by a message she reads in Rolling Stone, she's convinced that the surviving leader of her old band of radicals wants to build a life with her. So one night, Mary sneaks into the maternity ward of an Atlanta hospital.

Laura Clayborne has a successful career and now a newborn baby. She's the type of person who is sensitive to suffering and injustice. But the kidnapping of her infant son has brought out a white-hot fury. She's not going to sit and wait while the FBI investigates. She's going after Mary herself - headlong and relentless - on a twisting and violent cross-country pursuit to get her child back. But to track a madwoman, Laura will have to think like one....

A Bram Stoker Award winner, this "expertly constructed novel of suspense and horror" (Publishers Weekly) from the author of Swan Song, Speaks the Nightbird, and other acclaimed works is "feverishly exciting...a page-whipping thriller" (Kirkus Reviews).

Exceptional

From the most sinister of opening chapters to the thrilling conclusion, this is a captivating story of two desperate women willing to go as far as it takes to achieve their goals. Simply brilliant.

Gruesome, but gripping

Another epic battle! A lot of mainly unpleasant people fighting each other over possession of a baby.

heart stopping suspense.

I won't say much but this book is possibly the riveting thriller that I have ever read. The story of a mother trying to reclaim her newly born son from the clutches of a Psychotic woman on a journey into her own twisted past stands alongside Swan song as Mccammon's best work..

Gruesome

I had thought Robert McCammon’s Natthew Corbett books had too much explicit violence but this one is gratuitously gory. Excellent story telling by narrator and I did give the book 3 stars as it is skilfully written. I almost gave up when I thought we were on the final car chase only to realise there was another 5 hours to get through. I got to the end, and thank goodness good overcomes evil

Good story but graphically violent

Good story with tense plotting and unusual settings.The start is genuinely horrific. However the author revels in extended discriptions of physical injury, to the point of pain porn.
People have super stoic abilities to keep going no matter what.
Good twists and turns

All a bit predictable

I love the Matthew Corbet books, and the Wolf’s Hour is also excellent. This just became very predictable and boring…I even thought about forwarding until the expected ending but slogged my way through it.

disappointed

Normally love Robert McCammon but found this really dreary and predicatable. To the point if I missed any didn't need to go back and listen to understand story. Would not recommend.
