Praise for Paying the Piper:
“Wood keeps the pages flying, even as his plot gets more and more complex, accelerating nicely toward an elegant climax.” — Publishers Weekly
"Revenge fuels Wood's fast-paced thriller and the good guys deliver a winning finale.” — Oakland Tribune
Simon Wood "is the real deal, already knocking on the door of the A-list. He's that good....a ferocious raw artist." — Ken Bruen, author of Jack Taylor series
"Tense, fast-paced, and near impossible to put down." — Sean Chercover, author of Trigger City
"Simon Wood might not be a household name right now, but if his books continue at this pace he might soon be.” — Reviewing The Evidence
“An action-packed thriller that never slows down.” — Midwest Book Review
The Piper is the Bay Area’s infamous child kidnapper. When the Piper selected crime reporter, Scott Fleetwood, to report on his latest child kidnapping, Scott thought he had the world in his grasp, but he held nothing. Scott had been duped by a wannabe.
By the time the FBI exposed the hoaxer, time had run out, leaving the real Piper only one course of action—to kill the child. With a murder added to his résumé, the Piper vanished leaving Scott to take blame from the public and the investigating FBI agent, Tom Sheils.
But now, eight years later, the Piper’s back, with very specific targets in mind—Scott’s young children. Scott can have his children back as long as he can pay the ransom. The hard part is that ransom isn’t measured in dollars, but in blood.
