Description
A pulse-pounding bestseller from the author of ORPHAN X.
I know you, don't I? Five words β that's all it takes to plunge Mike Wingate and his family into mortal danger. Mike doesn't recognise the crippled stranger who approaches him at a party... but the stranger seems to know all about him.
What has Mike done? Do they have the wrong man? Overnight, the threats become attacks, and Mike, his wife, and their young daughter learn they aren't safe anywhere β especially not their own home.
He doesn't know who they are. He doesn't know what they want. But there's no time to figure it out β because his enemies have killed before, and he's next.
