![]() Der er ingen diskussionstråde på Snak om denne bog. El FBI lo llama código azul: cuando se sospecha que la identidad del testigo ha sido descubierta, cuando ha dejado la seguridad del programa, cuando no se sabe si está muerto o vivo... La vida de Kate se convierte en una pesadilla cuando descubre que su padre está involucrado en el caso judicial contra un poderoso cartel de narcos. Todos los miembros de su familia se convierten en testigos protegidos: han de dejar atrás su casa, su ciudad, sus trabajos, sus amigos... toda su vida. Kate se niega a entrar en el programa, aunque eso signifique separarse de los que más quiere. Una vez sola, comienza a descubrir que el FBI y su propio padre le están ocultando algo. Y que a veces, los que más tenemos más cerca son los que más hemos de temer... ( ![]() The Blue Zone has more twists and turns than a cork screw. When the father of a well to do family is arrested by the FBI it sets in motion many turn of events. Kate Rabb must sift through all she's been told by her father, the FBI and the agents of the Witness Protection Program to find out who is lying and where the truth lies. This is a top notch thriller by a first time solo author whose previous works was as a coauthor with James Patterson. OK easy to read fast paced silly book. The Raab family have to go into Witness protection because Ben Rabb the father is arrested for racketeering. The dodgy Mexicans are out for revenge. Their eldest daughter Kate stays out of the witness protection scheme. She is engaged to Greg. She meets an old man who is actually her real Dad. Ben Raab vanishes meets up with Kate and Mercado Kates real Dad. Shots are fired Greg saves the day. Started of ok then just got really silly. Kate Rabb — not really who she thinks she is — Witness Protection Prog Kate Raab's life seems almost perfect: her boyfriend, her job, her family . . . until her father runs into trouble with the law. His only recourse is to testify against his former accomplices in exchange for his family's placement in the Witness Protection Program. But one of them gets cold feet. In a flash, everything Kate can count on is gone. Now, a year later, her worst fears have happened: Her father has disappeared—into what the WITSEC agency calls "the blue zone"—and someone close to him is found brutally murdered. With her family under surveillance, the FBI untrustworthy, and her father's menacing "friends" circling with increasing intensity, Kate sets off to find her father—and uncover the secrets someone will kill to keep buried. Most of the book is compelling and fascinating. It was always, "ok-one more chapter and then I'll go to bed." I couldn't wait to find out how and why Ben Raab went into the Blue Zone-when the FBI has lost contact with a person in WITSEC, and what secrets Kate's mom was trying to tell Kate. The ending was unexpected, but slightly confusing. After turning the last page, I was still left wondering. It was a first solo effort so I can’t treat Mr. Gross too badly. I've read more of his books since and they are excellent.
Some nice switches and turns centering on daughter's refusal to go into witness protection after her father confesses to money laundering in order to faciliate the killing of his own brother for revenge. a predicable outcome from a very easy fast read Distinctions
