Reviews
"The Chain is a grade-A-first-rate-edge-of-your-seat thriller. I can't believe what went through my mind while reading it--the things I might be willing to do to save my child."-- Attica Locke, author of the Edgar Award-winning Bluebird, Bluebird, "A masterpiece. One of the finest novels ever produced in the genre. This is up there with Marathon Man and The Silence of the Lambs . I may not read a better thriller in my lifetime."-- Steve Cavanagh, author of Thirteen, "Adrian McKinty's The Chain is the rare thriller that's not only fiendishly clever but also powerfully empathetic, with both hair-raising twists and complex, fully-realized characters."-- Lou Berney, author of November Road, "The pace quickens and the tension builds whenever the mother and daughter appear in a scene. In the end, what makes The Chain so frightening - and why it works so well as a thriller - is that all of Rachel's actions remain completely relatable, even as she whipsaws between terror and determination, morphing from victim to perpetrator."-- Tina Jordan, The New York Times, "Adrian McKinty is one of those rare writers who creates characters and dreams up stories that are consistently real and sizzling."-- Jeffrey Mannix, The Durango Telegraph, "In McKinty's devilishly capable hands, the penalties and payoffs for not participating in the eponymous chain are very much life-and-death. . . . McKinty, a terrific creator of characters when it comes to people under pressure--consider Sean Duffy, his maverick Northern Irish detective who polices Belfast during the Troubles--has struck new thriller gold with Rachel, an ordinary woman whose side you won't be able to leave as she fights, tooth, nail, and whip-smart brain."-- Daneet Steffens, Seattle Review of Books, "Beneath the gripping plot lies an inquiry into the power of social media and crowdsourcing."-- The New Yorker, "McKinty hangs on to his wit and literacy even under duress...Beneath its surface of high-speed thrills, The Chain is clearly the work of the philosophical thinker McKinty has always been."-- Janet Maslin, New York Times, "Expertly choreographed and breathlessly exciting . . . both the peril and the family are like no other. The Chain was McKinty's breakthrough novel and this one could be every bit as big."-- Booklist (starred review), "Rachel Klein, a philosophy professor battling cancer and a bad marriage [is] the perfect pot in which to simmer a stew of ethical, moral, and existential quandaries while the action maintains a constant boil."-- Boris Kachka, Vulture, "A deeply unsettling story about the limits of morality, raising questions about the nature of good and evil and the depths of parental love."-- Joumana Khatib, New York Times, "At once a commentary on social media, greed, revenge, love, and true evil, and written with an almost lyrical quality, this book will have readers searching for more McKinty titles to devour. An unmissable thriller."-- Kirkus Reviews (starred review), "A mesmerizing excursion into a chilling crime that challenges the protagonist and reader in unimaginable ways."-- Mark Rubinstein, CrimeReads, "Thrillers... don't get much more psychologically rich than The Chain." -- David Canfield, Entertainment Weekly, " The Chain is that rare thriller which ends up being highly personal. ..a satisfying and deeply rewarding read."-- Tod Goldberg, USA Today, "McKinty's novel is one of those twisty thrillers that will keep you on your feet until the end."-- The Palm Beach Post, "McKinty has written several gripping stand-alones, of which this one is the best yet; in fact, it may well be the biggest thriller of the summer. . . . It's called the Chain, and it's a Ponzi scheme from hell. . . . A pitch-perfect psychological thriller. . . . Expect the buzz to build quickly for this one--think The Woman in the Window for 2019."-- Booklist (starred review), "Starting The Chain is like climbing aboard a runaway train. You'll miss meals, sleep, and your stop on the bus - guaranteed."-- Val McDermid, internationally bestselling author of Broken Ground, "This nightmarish story is incredibly propulsive and original. You won't shake it for a long time."-- Stephen King, "This high-concept rollercoaster--dubbed " Jaws for Parents" in a striking blurb by novelist Don Winslow--is the one that will have readers talking this summer. . . . The Chain turns out to be awfully hard to put down."-- Connie Ogle, Newsday, "You have never read anything quite like The Chain and you will never be able to forget it. Brilliant. Beautifully written. A masterpiece of tension. The Chain scared the hell out of me but I could not put it down! I raced to the end of the book and then went back to see how Adrian McKinty pulled it all off. The Chain belongs in the elite company of world-class thrillers like Gone Girl and The Silence of the Lambs . This is nothing short of JAWS for parents."-- Don Winslow, New York Times bestselling author of The Cartel and The Force, Parents beware, because Adrian McKinty's The Chain is pure nightmare fuel.-- Sabienna Bowman, PopSugar, "Told in a spare, punchy style, this is a blazing, full-tilt thriller that entirely justifies the hype."-- The Guardian, " The Chain is a straight-up, stone-faced thriller, a present-tense race...thunderous ride into the darkest, most fearful reaches of a parent's mind")-- Paddy Hirsch, NPR, "We promise that if you make room on your summer reading list for The Chain , you won't be disappointed.This intense thriller...is sure to raise the goosebumps."-- Lambeth Hochwald, Parade, "Rachel Knight's daughter has been abducted, and the only way Rachel can save her is to add another kidnapped child to the terrifying chain. Pairing an irresistible concept with a winner protagonist, The Chain promises to be your new addiction once you succumb to the first enticing page."-- Alafair Burke, New York Times bestselling author of The Better Sister and The Wife, "Scary, plausible, gripping."-- Ian Rankin, internationally bestselling author of In a House of Lies, "An original premise, relentless pacing, and strong female characters lift this nail-biter from Edgar winner McKinty, which takes a no-holds-barred look at how far a parent will go to protect her child. . . . Readers won't be able to put this thriller down."-- Publishers Weekly (starred review), "Diabolically gripping. Adrian McKinty has written a novel that's nail-biting, smart, and convincing, with a plot-jolting twist that readers of Gone Girl will love. Hang on tight, because once you start this book, you can't stop-like the characters in the story, you'll be caught in The Chain ."-- Meg Gardiner, author of Into the Black Nowhere, " The Chain is diabolical, unnerving, and gives a whole new meaning to the word 'relentless.' Adrian McKinty just leapt to the top of my list of must-read suspense novelists. He writes with confidence, heart, and style to spare. He's the real deal."-- Dennis Lehane, New York Times bestselling author of Mystic River and Since We Fell, "There are few recently published novels better situated and more player-ready for screen adaptation than Adrian McKinty's The Chain . Readers have eaten this book alive and so did the film world...The names attached to that adaptation gives fans good hope for a delirium-inducing result."-- CrimeReads

A TERRIBLE ACCIDENT CHANGED EVERYTHING. YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE CAPABLE OF UNTIL THEY COME FOR YOUR FAMILY. After moving from a small country town to Seattle, Heather Baxter marries Tom, a widowed doctor with a young son and teenage daughter. A working vacation overseas seems like the perfect way to bring the new family together, but once they're deep in the Australian outback, the jet-lagged and exhausted kids are so over their new mom. When they discover remote Dutch Island, off-limits to outside visitors, the family talks their way onto the ferry, taking a chance on an adventure far from the reach of iPhones and Instagram. But as soon as they set foot on the island, which is run by a tightly knit clan of locals, everything feels wrong. Then a shocking accident propels the Baxters from an unsettling situation into an absolute nightmare. When Heather and the kids are separated from Tom, they are forced to escape alone, seconds ahead of their pursuers. Now it's up to Heather to save herself and the kids, even though they don't trust her, the harsh bushland is filled with danger, and the locals want her dead. Heather has been underestimated her entire life, but she knows that only she can bring her family home again and become the mother the children desperately need, even if it means doing the unthinkable to keep them all alive.

I was nicely refunded my money for this die and it promptly was for sale again at a little higher price. When I questioned it, I was told that the supplier did not put it in the package and the other one was just found.
