Famously kidnapped at age six, Kick Lannigan captured America's hearts when she was rescued five years later. Now 21, she finds herself unexpectedly entangled in a missing child case that will put her talents to the test. Trained as a marksman, lock picker, escape artist, and bomb maker by her abductor, Kick could not return to the life of the average young girl after her release. So, in lieu of therapy, she mastered martial arts, boxing, and knife throwing and learned how to escape from the trunk of a car, jimmy a pair of handcuffs, and walk without making a sound — all before age 13. Kick has trained herself to be safe. But then two children go missing in three weeks. With lives hanging in the balance, Kick is set to be the crusader she has always imagined herself to be. A heart-stopping, entertaining thrill ride, One Kick (Simon & Schuster) announces the arrival of a blistering new series by Chelsea Cain, author of the critically acclaimed Archie Sheridan/Gretchen Lowell thrillers.
