The Piper

Bag om The Piper

In Boston an assailant immobilized a sleep-deprived young mother, blinded her with a black hood, and stole her infant son. When a second abduction occurs in an identical fashion, the media dubs this terrifying perpetrator "The Piper" after the Pied Piper of Northern European folk legend. Stumped by these mysterious kidnappings-with no witnesses, no leads, no ransom, and no sign of the missing babies-local authorities reach out to Special Agent Jackson Byrne and his FBI team specializing in child abduction. As Jack becomes embroiled in the child abduction case, he tries to prepare himself and his anxiety-riddled family for the trial of his most sensationalized criminal ever, the Playground Predator. Through themes of loss and grief, retribution and repentance, The Piper follows both the Playground Predator trial and the Piper's infant abductions as each story fervently races to its unforgettable climax. "[A] a piece that employs deep psychological intrigue and tension to power its saga of loss and survival... The Piper provides a compelling, absorbing story right up to its unexpected conclusion." -- D. Donovan, Senior Reviewer, Midwest Book Review
