The winner of an International Thriller Writers Award (for the Sam Capra thriller The Last Minute), Jeff Abbott is the bestselling author of more than 15 books and a three-time nominee for the Edgar award. A recurring theme in his fiction is the idea of extraordinary danger befalling ordinary people, who must then fight to return to their normal lives. His 2005 novel Panic is a great example of that. His novels have been bestsellers not just here, but also abroad.
