Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

The first installment in Jeffery Deaver's Colter Shaw series--soon to be a CBS series starring Justin Hartley.

The son of a survivalist family, Colter Shaw is an expert tracker. Now he makes a living as a "reward seeker," traveling the country to help police solve crimes and locate missing persons for private citizens.

"You've been abandoned. Escape if you can. Or die with dignity."

Hired by the father of a young woman who has gone missing in Silicon Valley, Shaw's search takes him into the dark heart of America's cutthroat billion-dollar video-game industry. When another person goes missing, Shaw must ask: Is a madman bringing a twisted video game to life?

Encountering eccentric designers, trigger-happy gamers, and ruthless tech titans, Shaw soon learns that he isn't the only one on the hunt: someone is on his trail and closing fast....

Named a Crime Novel of the Year by The New York Times Book Review , The Never Game proves once more why "Deaver is a genius when it comes to manipulation and deception" (Associated Press).

Compact discs.
