In this thrilling mystery, a woman finds herself in a race not only for justice but for her life, from the bestselling author of The Life We Bury

Riveting, hold-your-breath. --Karin Slaughter, New York Times bestselling author

Lila Nash is on the verge of landing her dream job--working as a prosecutor under the Hennepin County Attorney--and has settled into a happy life with her boyfriend, Joe Talbert. But when a woman is pulled from the Mississippi River, barely alive, things in the office take a personal turn. The police believe the woman's assailant is local photographer Gavin Spenser, but the case quickly flounders as the evidence wears thin. It seems Gavin saw this investigation coming--and no one can imagine how carefully he has prepared.

The more determined Lila is to put Gavin behind bars, the more elusive justice becomes. Battling a vindictive new boss and haunted by the ghosts of her own unspeakable attack, which she's kept a dark secret for eight long years, Lila knows the clock is ticking down. In a race against an evil mastermind, it will take everything Lila's got to outsmart a killer--and to escape the dark hold of her own past.

A near-perfect thriller, The Stolen Hours is a true nail-biter that will have you reading long into the night. --Book Reporter

Even readers who predict the tale's biggest twist before it arrives will still have the breath knocked out of them by the surprises that follow. --Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

There's not a moment misplaced or a second lost. With the precision of a watchmaker, Eskens assembles the fine parts of a mystery and sets them to the tempo of a thriller, leaving the reader breathless. --Craig Johnson, author of the Walt Longmire Mysteries
