1 Mins read

That ol’ chestnut, the missing teenager plotline, has been rolled out again but prepare for something a bit different in this stand alone tale from Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist turned author Bryan Gruley. Autistic 15-year-old Danny has gone missing from his home in Bleak Harbor, Michigan and a ransom demand for the decidedly odd sum of $5,150,122.98 follows his disappearance.
