Countdown by Ashley Michael will have you squirming the entire time that you are reading it. When Scott and Kate Hagan decided to replace some furniture in their upscale home, they were surprised to receive two boxes instead of just one. After making calls to straighten out the mistake, Kate received an email informing her that she would be receiving information for return shipping within a few weeks. Two weeks after they received their furniture, Kate and her sister discover a box that apparently had housed a stowaway. As authorities investigate the case at the Hagan home, they begin to see that there have been a number of similar things happening in several other locations in the South. As agents Russell and Smith move forward with the investigation, they notice that events are somehow connected to a former employer of Kate's. Is Kate's former employer somehow wrapped up in what seems to be developing into a major terrorist plot? Is Kate somehow connected as well?
The mystery only deepens as you continue to read Countdown. Each layer that Ashley Michael unravels seems to add more questions rather than answers in this frighteningly realistic mystery. The possibility of something so simple as making an online purchase is turned into something so sinister that it will send chills up your spine, because it hits just a little bit too close to home for most Americans. Suspenseful, intriguing and captivating, Countdown will make it impossible for you to stop turning pages in order to uncover what is really behind the stowaway in Kate's empty furniture box.
