The New
York Times bestselling author of Elevator Pitch and master of
psychological suspense returns with a riveting thriller in which the possible
heirs of a dying tech millionaire are mysteriously being eliminated, one by
one.
“Find You First starts with a bang and ends with
an even bigger one. . . . It’s the best book of his career.” — Stephen
King
Tech millionaire Miles Cookson has
more money than he can ever spend, and everything he could dream of—except
time. He has recently been diagnosed with a terminal illness, and there
is a fifty percent chance that it can be passed on to the next generation. For
Miles, this means taking a long hard look at his past . . .
Two
decades ago, a young, struggling Miles was a sperm donor. Somewhere out there,
he has kids—nine of them. And they might be about to inherit both the good and
the bad from him—maybe his fortune, or maybe something much worse.
As
Miles begins to search for the children he’s never known, aspiring film
documentarian Chloe Swanson embarks on a quest to find her biological father,
armed with the knowledge that twenty-two years ago, her mother used a New York
sperm bank to become pregnant.
When
Miles and Chloe eventually connect, their excitement at finding each other is
overshadowed by a series of mysterious and terrifying events. One by one, Miles’s
other potential heirs are vanishing—every trace of them wiped, like they never
existed at all.
Who
is the vicious killer—another heir methodically erasing rivals? Or is something
even more sinister going on?
It’s
a deadly race against time . . .
“[Barclay] does a masterful job of layering on the mysteries until we’re almost frantically turning the pages, impatient to find out what the hell is going on. A beautifully executed thriller.”
