The Native American guide is hunted for her knowledge in this โtour de forceโ thriller from the New York Timesโbestselling author of Vanishing Act (Kirkus Reviews, starred review).
ย
Jane Whitefield of the Seneca Nation has spent years helping desperate people disappear. But now she is about to become the hunted one. When James Shelby is unjustly convicted of his wifeโs murder, Jane spirits him out of the heavily guarded criminal court building in downtown Los Angeles. Then, within minutes, Jane is kidnapped.
ย
The person who killed Shelbyโs wife now wants him dead, and Janeโs captors will put her through excruciating torment to discover his whereabouts. Though Jane manages to escape, she is wounded and weak, thousands of miles from home without money or identificationย .ย .ย . and hunted by both police and criminals.
ย
Attempting to rejoin Shelby and get to safety, Jane is caught in a waking nightmare, as many of the pursuers she has eluded for years gather to bid on her capture in a multimillion-dollar auction. The winning bidder buys the chance to access Janeโs memory, and the locations of everyone she has helped disappear.
ย
โFans of Jane Whitefield know what to expect from this fearless Indian guide in Thomas Perryโs quick-witted capers: cunning strategies, clever disguises, ingenious escape tactics and breathtaking cross-country chases. Perry delivers to order inย Poison Flower.โ โMarilyn Stasio,ย The New York Times Book Review
