The Last Minute by Jeff Abbott

The Last Minute by Jeff Abbott
(Sam Capra #2)
496 pages / 16 hrs, 52 mins

"Sam Capra has one reason to live: to rescue his baby son from the people who abducted him.  An ex-CIA agent, Sam now owns bars around the world as cover for his real mission-working undercover for a secret network as mysterious as it is powerful, while using his skills to find his child.

"Now the kidnappers have offered a deadly deal: they'll surrender Sam's child...if Sam finds and murders the one man who can expose them.  Teaming up with a desperate young mother whose daughter is also missing, Sam tracks his prey-and his son-across the country in a dangerous race against time, and must unravel a deadly conspiracy if he's to rescue the only person in the world that matters to him."  (from the publisher)

This is a thriller that completely lives up to its name; the action never stops.  It has a solid ending that ties up all the loose ends, too.  The fight/chase scenes were a little long for me, but they were written well.  If you like good guys who find themselves in impossible situations, then you'll like this series.  You'll definitely want to read the first one before the second.
