Publisher's summary

Eve Duncan’s daughter Jane MacGuire seems to have found a perfect life with Seth Caleb—until a ruthless madman threatens to destroy it all, in this gripping suspense novel from #1 bestselling author Iris Johansen.

Jane MacGuire is enjoying a period of domestic bliss as she focuses on her art and her partner Seth Caleb uses his unique abilities as an agent for the MI6 intelligence service. But when Seth crosses crime lord Hugh Bohdan, he incurs the wrath of one of the world’s most powerful criminal empires…one whose tentacles reach across the globe and even to the idyllic Scottish retreat where Jane is working.

Soon Jane is on the run, struggling to stay one step ahead of Bohdan’s army and his devastating high-tech weaponry. Even with the assistance of Earl John MacDuff, she finds danger at every turn. But with that peril comes an astonishing discovery: a 200-year-old secret on the brink of becoming lost to history.

Jane and Seth must join forces to unlock the fascinating puzzle, even as they hurtle toward a lethal final confrontation in the Highlands. But before their adventure is over, Jane and Seth will encounter their biggest shock of all…and realize nothing can be the same for them ever again.

Love following familiar characters but Jane did grate on my nerves in this one

Always reliable the Eve Duncan saga helped to flesh out some familiar friends. Predictable of course but still interesting and entertaining. Jane was a little too whiney this time though.

Iris Johansen never disappoints

Captive was absolutely worth waiting for.
Have always favored Caleb and Janes relationship . And then how can you ignore McDuff? I love this series and have followed it for many years. Look forward to many more. Can’t wait for the next book.

Best series

This is my second time to listen to this book. Eve series along with Jane and Kaleb is the best! I hope there will be more books with the next generation excitement. The exceptional children, Michael and the new baby must have an exciting future. Very enjoyable from page one to the end!!!

Best is yet to come.

It just gets better every time. Can’t wait to see this little girl and Michael take on the world with Eve and Jane and Cara and Catherine and the marvelous men behind them watching over them every step. Isn’t it time for Cara and Jock to bring on a new generation child too?

liked It

I enjoyed this book because the author allowed the heroine to embrace love and life. in so many of her books like with Kendra Scoot or Ctherine Ling she paints them as strong but yet so afraid to love and live. Seth and Jane work to be partners in everything and share a involitable love. Sex scences not overly detailed which is nice . decent plot. Nice reprisals from former books. Happy ending

great but don't get upset over changes to history

good read despite history rewrites ie how Jane and Eve first met how Jane first came to the Run and so on.

Another Great Jane McGuire Book

I absolutely love Iris Johansen novels especially the ones about Jane and Caleb. The storyline provided lots of mystery, action, and romance. It also brilliantly teased the next novel by setting up a storyline to search for the other missing treasure.

Slow and Predicable

I don't know how I got through this book. I thought the good ratings would be justified. Not a good read, slightly boring.
