Un thriller dramatique se déroule autour d'une trio de ravisseurs qui s'attaquent aux familles de riches médecins américains. Ces hommes ont mis au point un système de kidnappings parfaits et relativement sûrs, où un enfant est enlevé en l'absence du père, caché dans les montagnes pendant vingt-quatre heures, tandis qu'un des ravisseurs reste avec la mère jusqu'à la remise de l'argent. Ce système fonctionne parfaitement pendant plusieurs années, mais lorsqu'ils enlèvent la fille d'un anesthésiste réputé, ils rencontrent un adversaire à leur mesure. La fillette de cinq ans nécessite des soins médicaux, et ses parents, déterminés à tout faire pour la sauver, estiment que le délai de vingt-quatre heures est trop long pour attendre passivement les instructions des ravisseurs. Ce thriller, bien écrit, se distingue par son intensité et son suspense, captivant le lecteur jusqu'à la dernière page.
