About this eBook
A pulse-pounding thriller from the bestselling author of Richard & Judy Book Club selections, ORPHAN X and YOU'RE NEXT.
From the eleventh storey of a Los Angeles high-rise, Nate looks out on the city - the traffic, the trees, the beach beyond. He breathes deeply. And then he moves one foot off the ledge and into thin air.
But before he can jump, gunshots ring out from within the building.
A robbery is in progress. And Nate, with nothing to lose but the life he was about to give up, decides to intervene.
What happens next plunges Nate into mortal danger . . . and reunites him with the family he hasn't known for years - a family he will do anything to protect.
Packed with twists and suspense, hurtling forward at relentless speed, The Survivor is a gripping, unforgettable story of sacrifice, redemption and heroism - a thriller to rival the very best of Linwood Barclay and Harlan Coben.

The book has a nice story but takes way too long to read. The author takes 2 pages just to describe a bullet' action. This kind of bores me so I stopped reading it after about page 20.
