## Description

"An electrifying thriller with action that keeps you on the edge of your seat!" --Lisa Jackson, New York Times bestselling author Jake Dent's dreams of baseball glory fell apart in a drunk-driving incident, along with his marriage. But a popular survivalist blog helped restore his sense of control. Now Jake is an avid Doomsday Prepper, raising his diabetic son, Andy, to be ready for anything. But Andy has a secret even his father never saw coming. "Fans of Harlan Coben or Linwood Barclay will especially enjoy this one." -- Booklist A student at the prestigious Pepperell Academy where Jake works as a custodian, Andy is part of a computer club that redistributes money from the obscenely wealthy to the needy. But this time, they've stolen from the wrong people: a vicious drug cartel that is coming to get its money back. "Extraordinary character development and more than a few bombshell plot twists will keep readers turning the pages." – Publishers Weekly Staging a distraction, the cartel infiltrates the Academy, taking Andy and his friends hostage one by one. But hidden inside the school's tunnels is Jake, with his stockpile of weapons and supplies. He knows that soon the killing will start, and his training will be put to the ultimate test. Because in the brutal, lawless struggle that is about to ensue, he's the last best chance these students--including his son--have of getting out alive. "Unrelentingly suspenseful." -- Publishers Weekly on Stolen "Warning: once you start reading this novel, you will not stop!" --Lisa Gardner on Helpless "Not just a great thriller debut, but a great thriller, period." --Lee Child on Delirious

Review: A Brutal "Must-Read" For Thriller Fans - "Constant Fear" by Daniel Palmer is a compelling, engaging suspense/thriller which takes readers on a thrilling roller-coaster ride at breakneck speed and does not let up until the final pages. Characterization is outstanding and the action is brutal enough for me to warn the squeamish to pass on this one. Otherwise, all I can say is, grab this one, buckle up, and maybe leave the lights on. Jake Dent's dreams of becoming a major league pitcher are shattered when he is injured in a drunk driving accident and after his wife walks out on Jake and their son, Andy, Jake is left to raise Andy alone. Latching onto survivalist philosophy and literature as a means of focusing his life, Jake trains Andy over the years to "be prepared " for anything life throws at him. Andy is now a student at the exclusive Pepperell Academy where Jake works as a custodian to qualify his son. Unfortunately, Jake has no idea that Andy and a small band of friends have a computer club called the Shire which steals small sums of money from wealthy parents to give to poor families in the best "Robin Hood" tradition. But one of them has seemingly stolen 200 million dollars worth of bitcoins from the deadly and crazed leader of a Mexican drug cartel who is sending "Fausto", his brutal enforcer, to Pepperell Academy to kidnap the members of the Shire to get his money back. Staging a hazardous waste "accident" to evacuate the school (after cornering the Shire members), Fausto is disappointed that none of the students seem to know the whereabouts of the money, even under threat of torture. Meanwhile, Jake discovers the kidnappings and his survivalist instincts and training kick in and he enters the school's underground tunnels and hidden rooms to engage the enemy and free the hostages. Palmer ratchets up the tension and suspense page by page as Jake must face a desperate band of killers to free his son and the others while law enforcement wait outside deterred by a bogus bomb threat. This is a fun but gripping read that will have you stopping at times to catch your breath or to just stretch tightened fingers. Daniel Palmer has certainly impressed me enough to await his next thriller in anxious anticipation. His writing style, characterization, pacing, and dialogue are noteworthy but his ability to create a sense of danger and suspense and hold the reader in that mode for hours is outstanding. I truly enjoyed this novel and recommend it to fans of the suspense/thriller genre.
Review: Survivalist father and hacker son - The concepts of fear and ways to survive fear link the people and the plot. When anyone hacks into another's computer and data base, one should expect trouble. A survivalist father and his hacker son manage to stay alive, in spite of angry and determined bad guys from across the border. Throughout the narrative, unexpected twists and turns appear, somewhat like the tunnels under the private school. Nasty, awful violence keeps me from rating this a 5.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A true page-turner. Couldn't put it down.
*by M***T on June 1, 2015*

"Constant Fear" hooked me from the start and kept my attention until the end. I even brought it to work and took time during lunch to read instead of catching up on Facebook/email during that time. It was very fast-paced and I found myself quite a fan of Ellie -- the police officer that Jake Dent (the main character) is dating. She was very spunky and self-assured, but also quite caring. I also want my very own Kibo -- Ellie's dog. I was able to easily envision each of the characters and the situations from Palmer's descriptions. "Constant Fear" taught me quite a bit about survivalists; having diabetes (and just how dangerous it can be when blood sugar drops); and bitcoins. Reminded me to never mess with a drug cartel -- not like I was going to do that anyway. ;) If you're looking for a book that will suck you in and keep you interested til the end, "Constant Fear" is it.
