Who is the car-jacker? How is he choosing his targets? And - most urgent of all - can Caffery find the child?

Sorry to say that nothing comes close to treatment, this wasn't gripping for me and as usual the criminals get off easy and do not have a fitting punishment for their crimes. This whole walking man thing is so off point for what I expected of Hayder . Jack seems to have lost his edge in this one. I think the only reason I'm reading the series is to see if he finds the truth about his brother and its frustrating that the story of his brother is almost completely dropped in this book.
