A cryptic message. A missing niece. And only twenty-four hours to pay.
After traveling to New Orleans to see his niece's band on tour, Police Chief Drake Cooper, a.k.a. Coop, finds a piece of paper stuck to the front door of his brother's home. A handwritten message reveals his niece has been abducted, a ransom is being demanded, and Coop's family has twenty-four hours to pay.
Praise for the Deadly Sins series:
"You feel like you are watching the events unfold."
"Grips you from first paragraph. I wasn't able to guess the murderer until the end."
"If you are not familiar with the series, or this author, this is a good introduction."
