Book Description
Mike Wingate, abandoned by his father at four and raised in foster care, is finally living the life he always dreamed of—he’s happily married with a precocious 8-year-old daughter, and his construction company is about to finish a “green” housing development that will secure a solid future for them all. But then something from his own past, a past he doesn’t even remember, comes back to visit terror upon him and his family.
Shady characters begin threatening Mike and, when he reports them, the police seem more interested in Mike’s murky past than in protecting him. Now, with Mike, his wife Annabel and daughter Kat suddenly under attack from all sides, Mike turns to Shep, a dangerous man—and Mike’s only true friend— from his childhood days in foster care. Together they will do whatever it takes to protect Mike’s family against the hidden men behind the terrifying warning, “You’re Next.”
My thoughts
At the age of four, Mike Wingate was abandoned and left to grow up in the foster care system not knowing who he really is. He grows up, a troubled youth, whose only true family is another boy Shep. Mike wants to have a normal life, while Shep becomes a career criminal. After an incident with wrong pipe being installed at a housing project Mike is working on, and being harassed in a parking lot, Mike’s past comes back to haunt him. Who were his parents and why are these people after him. Not being able to turn to the police, Mike asks Shep to help him and the battle begins.
Although, there were many questions as this story unfolded, it is action packed and thrilling. Greg Hurwitz’s story kept my enthralled and I never expected an ending as such. He shows what love of family can do to not one person but many, whether is for good or evil. This one should be on your summer reading list.
Disclosure: I received this book for review from the publisher. I received not compensation for my thoughts.
