What looked like a routine missing person's case involving a young wife and mother should’ve been changed to a suspected abduction. But it’s too late. Twenty years ago, a young woman fell tragically to her death. The only people with her were four schoolfriends, one of whom (or maybe all) is responsible. Now there's someone intent on letting them have their just deserts. DCI Andrew Fenwick is soon caught in a desperate race against time to find the murderer before he completes his brutal vendetta. 

Changez is living an immigrant’s dream of America. At the top of his class at Princeton, he is snapped up by the elite "valuation" firm of Underwood Samson. He thrives on the energy of New York, and his infatuation with elegant, beautiful Erica promises entry into Manhattan society, but in the wake of September 11, Changez finds his position in his adopted city suddenly overturned, and his budding relationship with Erica eclipsed by the reawakened ghosts of her past. And Changez’s own identity is in seismic shift as well, unearthing allegiances more fundamental than money, power, and maybe even love.

This is the untold true story of one citizen's pointless torture and month-long captivity. The story, formerly miss-told if not utterly overlooked, has been made into a feature film. Even as a dark comedy, there is little amusement to be found in human suffering. The sick and twisted minds of Mr. Schiller's captors would be fodder for the Darwin Awards if the results were not so alarmingly inhumane. Physical, mental and emotional torture, as well as sensory deprivation and starvation, the prisoner of war-like conditions differed only in the fact that Mr. Schiller was completely alone.
