The Timer Game by Susan Arnout Smith

What the cover says:
"CSI Detective Grace Descano gets a call to work a routine crime scene, but two hours and three dead bodies later, Grace is the one under investigation.
When her 5 year old daughter is snatched, Grace is thrown into a nightmare world of timed riddles, which must be solved - if she wants to see Katie again.
She's got 24 hours.
Welcome to the Timer Game."


A breathless chase from beginning to end. You're thrown straight in from the first chapter in a completely unexpected way, and the pressure doesn't really let up from there. Twists and turns along the way add to the suspense, and this could easily be read in one sitting - not because it's short, but because you won't want to stop till the end.

9/10
