About this listen
In one terrible moment, paramedic Sophie Phillips' life is ripped apart - her police officer husband, Chris, is shot on their doorstep and their ten-month-old son, Lachlan, is abducted from his bed. Suspicion surrounds Chris as he is tainted with police corruption, but Sophie believes the attack is much more personal - and the perpetrator far more dangerous...
While Chris is in hospital and the police, led by Detective Ella Marconi, mobilise to find their colleague's child, Sophie's desperation compels her to search for Lachlan herself. She enlists her husband's partner, Angus Arendson, in the hunt for her son, but will the history they share prove harmful to Sophie's ability to complete her mission? And could one dangerous decision cause Sophie to ultimately lose everything important in her life?
©2007 Katherine Howell (P)2007 Bolinda PublishingEditorial reviews
Australian crime novelist Katherine Howell, who worked as a paramedic for 15 years, brings firsthand experience to this detective novel.
Paramedic Sophie Phillips finds herself with a husband, a police officer, in the hospital from a gun injury and a 10-month-old child who has been abducted. Detective Ella Marconi leads the police search for the child, but Phillips attempts to find her child herself with the help of her husband’s partner.
Caroline Lee uses an Australian accent and a gruff, plainspoken delivery that helps to accentuate the grittiness of Frantic and its subject matter.

great read
wow, what a great story = was a little disappointed in the reaction of the mother - I am positive she should have been a little more frantic but this story kept me guessing. I hate books that are really predictable and you can guess the end half way thru, but this one didn't disappoint - I didn't see the end at all. Caroline Lee is my all time favourite narrator and I pick books she reads and now find it hard to listen to other narrators. Im extremely disappointed to see that books 2 and 3 in this series is unavailable - WHAT!?!?!? this has to be remedied pronto.
