Joseph Findercould have been a spy, or maybe taught Russian history, but we’re glad that he became a thriller writer instead.  “His books ring with realism.” says John Hutchinson of VJ Books.  “We have sold his books for several years, and are excited with the promise of each new release.  Fans are pumped that he has chosen to return to Nick Heller.”

In his New York Times bestselling novel Vanished, Joseph Finder introduced Nick Heller—a “private spy” who discovers secrets that powerful people want to keep hidden.  Now, in Buried Secrets, Nick Heller returns, finding himself in the middle of a life-or-death situation that’s both high-profile and intensely personal.

Nick has returned to his old home town of Boston and is urgently summoned by an old family friend whose daughter is missing. Alexa has just been kidnapped. Her abduction was clearly a sophisticated professional job, done with extraordinary precision. Alexa, whom Nick has known since she was young, is now buried alive, held prisoner in an underground crypt, a camera trained on her, her suffering streaming live over the internet. She’s been left with a limited supply of food and water and, if her father doesn’t meet the demands of her shadowy kidnappers, she’ll die.

Nick Heller is not a guy you want to mess with.  Trained in the Special Forces, he is a high-powered intelligence investigator who exposes secrets better kept hidden.  He’s the guy to call when you need help, and he comes to play in Buried Secrets.  Don’t miss this exciting new thriller from Joseph Finder.
