Be careful what you wish for…

Rookie computer techie Ephraim Freedwald is your ordinary guy living an ordinary life—restlessly dreaming of a more exciting reality, beyond working for his smug, advice-churning cousin and dealing with his kids’ meltdowns. But when the happily married father of four is forced by ruthless criminals to participate in a devious terrorist plot, his life, the safety of his family, and the city of London all hang in a precarious balance. Whether being held captive by Islamic extremists, shooting the breeze with Royal Family lookalikes, or standing up to British intelligence agents, Ephraim discovers a side of himself he never knew he possessed.

In best-selling author Ruthie Pearlman’s latest thriller, readers will encounter an ordinary Wednesday that turns out to be frighteningly extraordinary.
