The Devoted Game

By: Debra Webb

Narrated by: Joe Knezevich, Samara Naeymi

A disgraced FBI agent is challenged to a life-or-death match by a deviously clever kidnapper in this propulsive novel by USA Today bestselling author Debra Webb.

Former FBI agent Ryan McBride crashed and burned three years ago after a case took a fatal turn. He swore he was done with the Bureau forever—until Special Agent Vivian Grace shows up at his door with a new case he can’t refuse.

Six-year-old Alyssa Byrne has been kidnapped, and her abductor, alias Devoted Fan, has threatened to kill her in twenty-four hours. He promises to reveal the girl’s location to the FBI on one condition: He’ll only talk to McBride.

With the clock ticking, Grace and McBride race to solve Devoted Fan’s puzzles, each more twisted than the last. But when another victim goes missing, with a promise of more to come, they realize that Devoted Fan is not just a stranger with a deranged obsession. His sick game is somehow connected to both their pasts—but around which dark corner lies the answer?

Revised edition: Previously published as Nameless, this edition of The Devoted Game includes editorial revisions.

enjoyed every minute

I hope that this series continues. I absolutely enjoyed every single second of this book. I love the two main characters

Excellent villains!!

Such a good book! Loved every second! I wish there were more stories about The two of them -McBride and Grace solving cases together!

I enjoyed this

I really enjoyed this book. I thought it was well paced, and I enjoyed the characters. It’s a bit spicy. The ending was ok, but I thought it was a little superficial.

Debra Webb never disappoints

An original twist on typical FBI stories! A disgraced former agent is called in to help on a case at the perpetrator’s demand. Things start moving fast from there!!

A bit darker than her usual

This story was a bit darker than I am used to from this author. Well developed characters with difficult backgrounds. Suspenseful. I had guessed a few key points but I read a lot of suspense and mysteries. Excellent narration.
