At thirty-four, Internet entrepreneur Ryan Perry seemed to have the world in his pocket - until the first troubling symptoms appeared out of nowhere. Within days, he's diagnosed with incurable cardiomyopathy and finds himself on the waiting list for a heart transplant; it's his only hope, and it's dwindling fast. Ryan is about to lose it all...his health, his girlfriend Samantha, and his life. One year later, Ryan has never felt better. Business is good and he hopes to renew his relationship with Samantha. Then the unmarked gifts begin to appear - a box of Valentine candy hearts, a heart pendant. Most disturbing of all, a graphic heart surgery video and the chilling message: Your heart belongs to me.
In a heartbeat, the medical miracle that gave Ryan a second chance at life is about to become a curse worse than death. For Ryan is being stalked by a mysterious woman who feels entitled to everything he has. She's the spitting image of the twenty-six-year-old donor of the heart beating steadily in Ryan's own chest.
Malcom Hillgartner's smooth, cool voice and slow-paced delivery perfectly capture Internet mogul Ryan Perry, a man who thinks he has everything--until his world is turned upside down when he's diagnosed with an incurable heart ailment. After Perry receives a heart transplant, he believes his problems are over. Then the anonymous gifts begin, and a mystery woman who is the image of his heart donor makes it clear that Ryan has something she wants back. Hillgartner is riveting in this spellbinding foray into the dark realms of life and death, choices and consequences, ties that break and those that cannot be broken. His performance will give you the willies and make you sleep with a light on for weeks. A.C.P. (c) AudioFile 2009, Portland, Maine
