Kidnapped, pregnant teen plots a calculating escape and merciless revenge

Imagine a helpless, pregnant 16-year-old who's just been yanked from the serenity of her home and shoved into a dirty van. Kidnapped . . . Alone . . . Terrified.

Now forget her . . .

Picture instead a pregnant, 16-year-old, manipulative prodigy. She is shoved into a dirty van and, from the first moment of her kidnapping, feels a calm desire for two things: to save her unborn child and to exact merciless revenge.

She is methodical—calculating—scientific in her plotting. A clinical sociopath? Leaving nothing to chance, secure in her timing and practice, she waits—for the perfect moment to strike. Method 15/33 is what happens when the victim is just as cold as her abductors.

The agents searching for a kidnapped girl have their own frustrations and desires wrapped into this chilling drama. In the twists of intersecting stories, one is left to ponder. Who is the victim? Who is the aggressor?

Perfect for fans of Gillian Flynn and Jeffrey Deaver

Ratings and reviews

I read this in two sittings, it flowed easily and I just had to keep on reading. Certainly not the usual kidnap/manhunt fare but if anything more gripping because of the different perspective.

Method 15/33 was a very very good read, all through some parts are heartbreaking I really enjoyed it , full of auction and suspense. I couldn't put it down 👍👍

This book was very well written and kept me enthralled until the last page. It's very intense and not a typical mystery book. Definitely worth the read, and you will like the protagonist.
