The Wrong Hostage Elizabeth Lowell

Politics cost Joe Faroe his career, his freedom, and a woman who still haunts him, and ever since, Joe has worked outside the rules and politics of government as a kidnap specialist for a Manhattan-based, global business that concentrates on the shadow world where governments can't go. Then someone he called a friend dies while trying to kill him and Joe retires, sick of trying to save a world that doesn't want to be saved. When Catherine Silva, a respected judge with a past, comes to him, Joe's past and present collide, and he finds himself sucked back into the shadows, tracking a violent killer who holds the life of Catherine's son in his bloody hands.
