Surviving Midas - Paperback

by Rw Hague (Author)

As a daughter of an FBI agent, Katie knows the basics of child abduction prevention: don't talk to strangers, don't get into a car with anyone you don't know, and don't piss off Midas. But Dad broke the last rule, and now Katie is left to pay for it.

The day after her fifteenth birthday, Katie Thompson opens a birthday card armed with a golden glitter bomb. At first, the prank seems harmless until she sees the card has been signed by Midas, the man her FBI father has been investigating for nearly a decade. The FBI dismisses the card as a taunt, one of many from Midas in the past, but the next day Katie is kidnapped by the infamous Midas. With Katie as his hostage, Midas now controls the FBI investigation that would see him destroyed.

​

Katie is held captive on the farm in the middle of nowhere with fifty other kids, all victims of Midas's kidnapping ring. Here they are forced to work as slaves under hellish conditions. Food is always scarce, exposure to the elements is guaranteed, and sickness kills the weak. Escape is a death sentence, but mere survival might mean losing everything else.
