The Boy Who Didn't Cry

The new novel by Richie Rich

About the book

Picture

​Two boys are kidnapped from the same renowned family. A search spanning four years for the first boy is fruitless; the second boy is then taken. A rescue mission with world-wide implications ensues. 

When Jennifer’s child is kidnapped, she faces the consequences alone. After the event, her wealthy arms-dealer father secretly establishes and funds a Kidnap And Rescue Team (KART) for their local area in England. When the second family child along with a group of his friends is taken, the search for the missing children exposes an international child trafficking ring.

Were the two separate kidnappings against the family a result of arms deals gone bad?
And if the two kidnappings are connected—what happened to Jennifer’s child who vanished four years ago? 

The rescue becomes an international drama for KART when the missing children from the second kidnap are tracked to a high-end sex hotel in Cambodia. Will Jennifer's and her family’s far-reaching connections be enough to recover the children in the hotel?

readers REVIEWS


​
"I have read this book numerous times, each read capturing a greater part of the picture. The characters are well rounded and cleverly presented. The story is informative and decidedly non-compassionate for those who kidnap and harm children. The book ending is an unexpected moment of closure. It gets me every time…"    -Donna V.
