Tipton County Public Library Hidden Gems discussion

Hostage Taker was named one of the best books of 2015 by Library Journal, and I couldn’t agree more. It is a tense, gripping read from beginning to end. Award-winning author Stefanie Pintoff begins her captivating new thriller series, featuring Eve Ross, with a bang. Eve is the head of a secret division of the FBI made up of ex-convicts with rare talents. This story begins on a rainy morning in Manhattan. Just as it’s time for morning mass, a young woman steps out of the immense bronze doors of Saint Patrick’s Cathedral, holding a sign that reads, HELP ME. No one knows how many people are inside the Cathedral, why they are being held hostage, or who is holding them. Eve must manage a dangerous hostage situation while thousands of tourists are in New York City for the holidays. I highly recommend this book for anyone who likes thrillers, or for anyone who is just looking for a great read.
