While en route to a medical convention, divorced surgeon Henry Steadman is thinking about his daughter, Hallie, a college freshman, when the cop who has stopped him for a minor traffic violation is shot by a stranger in a speeding blue sedan.

Suspected of the killing, Henry becomes the target of an intense manhunt and turns to his one friend in town, Mike, for help. Only Mike is dead, too—and again the evidence points to Henry.

With the exception of Carrie Holmes, a sympathetic cop, Henry is on his own as the real killer crosses a line that makes it even more urgent that he uncover the stunning truths behind this cruel and diabolical plot. Andrew Gross’ 15 Seconds is another nail-biting hit for the bestselling author.
