Terror claws into the lives of an American family... On a quiet night in their tranquil suburban home, the Fulton family awakens to a nightmare. Four armed men force bank manager Dan Fulton to steal a quarter million dollars from his branch--strapping remote-detonation bombs on him, his wife, Lori, and their young son. A relentless reporter discovers an agonizing secret... The FBI moves swiftly with a major investigation while Kate Page, a reporter with a newswire service, digs deep into the story. In the wake of the Fulton family's abduction, questions emerge, including one of the most troubling: is the case linked to Lori Fulton's tragic past? Time ticks down on a chilling plan... Working as fast as they can, Kate and the investigators inch closer to a devastating truth--it's not only the Fultons' lives at stake, but thousands of others...and every second counts in the race to save them.
