The Chase

By: Candice Fox

Narrated by: David de Vries, Lisa Negron

The Chase is a modern The Fugitive with characters only number one New York Times and Globe and Mail best-selling author Candice Fox can write.

“Are you listening, Warden?”

“What do you want?”

“I want you to let them out.”

“Which inmates are we talking about?”

“All of them.”

When 650 of the world’s most violent human beings pour out of the Pronghorn Correctional Facility into the Nevada Desert, the biggest manhunt in US history begins.

For John Kradle, this is his chance to prove his innocence, 26 years after the murder of his wife and child. He just needs to stay one step ahead of the law enforcement officers he knows will be chasing down the escapees.

Death Row Supervisor-turned-fugitive-hunter Celine Osbourne is single-minded in her mission to catch Kradle. She has very personal reasons for hating him - and she knows exactly where he’s heading....

Critic reviews

"This engrossing new variation on The Fugitive sets a female U.S. marshal every bit as relentless as Sam Gerard against a runaway prisoner as compelling as Richard Kimble...This one is her best yet." —Booklist, starred review

“One of our brightest crime fiction stars.” —Adrian McKinty, New York Times bestselling author of The Chain

“If you haven't read Candice Fox yet, you're missing out! I can't wait to read what this talented writer does next!” —Chevy Stevens

Good story. Keeps moving along

Heard of Candice Fox when she wrote books with James Patterson. Very good writer in her own right. Just got another book of hers. Looking forward to it.

Good read

It was good if not a little predictable. Kept my attention and was worth the purchase.

Good story : Robotic female narration is horrible

Enjoyed the story. It’s a good thing that it was a good story because the narration of the story was awful. It almost made me not listen to the book.

Annoying female narrator!

Good story. Male narrator was great. The female narrator sounded like an automated call center robot. Was able to get through the whole story despite her. I checked all my other C. Fox books. This is the only time they have used her. Let’s hope it’s the last.

Great story and enthralling to listen to and follow

Great enthralling read. Very moving and thrilling story long. Took me about a month to listen to.

Really Good!

Both narrators brought this story to life and Candice Fox pulled off her first US based thriller with barely a hitch! I kept wondering if she had wrote this and caught the protagonist watching someone come around the “bonnet” rather than the hood of the car! Lol. Good job Ms. Fox! I enjoyed this one!

Good book

Good reading full of twist. Very smooth. Long book but worth every minute. Good narrators.

Great twists

Well, assumed one thing about the plot….then Bam! It changed. What a ride! Hope the two main characters stick around.

I liked her early books

I managed to listen to the whole book. I don't think I set a terribly high bar, as I'm more or less a book listening addict. But I never felt anything for the characters, It seemed like just another plot strung together with characters I couldn't relate to. The narrator got me through it.

Disappointed

I pre-ordered this because I love Candice Fox's other books. This one takes place in the US-confusing as all the others are in her native Australia. The editors must also be from down under since cotton candy was called "fairy floss" - definitely not an American term.
It rambled. The characters were so disconnected. This is obviously planned as a series, but I don't know that it would be worth a credit again.
Can we please get some more Harriet Blue?
