  這兒號稱「藍色天堂」,罪惡的槍聲卻一舉擊潰正義的防線......

  平凡小姊弟無故失蹤,在分秒必爭的緊湊救援過程中,竟挖出驚人的警界貪腐案......

  十二歲的安妮早熟、勇敢,十歲的威廉天真、莽撞。一天,安妮帶著威廉來到河邊釣魚,不遠處卻傳來槍響,小姊弟目睹了慘無人道的虐殺,與殺人兇手四目相接的姊姊,急忙牽起弟弟的手在深山林間奔竄,而惡徒始終窮不捨......

  他們不知眼前這群男子竟是平日被視為英雄的人民保母,不知原來他們所居住的純樸小鎮,竟是惡人為非作歹的天堂,亦不知道他們的逃亡與失蹤,不僅喚醒在小鎮上蠢蠢欲動的邪惡與黑暗,但也使另一椿懸宕八年的案情露出一線曙光......

  A twelve-year-old girl and her younger brother go on the run in the woods of northern Idaho, pursued by four men they have just watched commit murder - four men who know exactly who William and Annie are, and where their desperate mother is waiting for news of her children's fate. The kids soon find they don't know whom they can trust among their L.A. transplant neighbors, including hundreds of retired Southern California cops who've given the area it's nickname: 'Blue Heaven." As a group of dirty cops spearhead the search for William and Annie, one false move will stop these children from ever finding their way home.

  With true-to-life, unforgettable characters, C.J. Box has created a thriller that delves into issues close to our heart: the pervasiveness of greed, the banality of evil, and the truth about what constitutes a family. In a story where unlikely heroes find themselves at the cross- roads of duty and courage, "Blue Heaven delivers twists and turns until its last breathtaking page.
