From the world of New York's Catholic Cathedral, to the secret and treacherous brotherhood of a Black Forest monastery, to a Vatican conclave to elect a new pope. This is the second novel from Robin Driscoll of Alas Smith and Jones and the Mr. Bean TV series and films. Following the success of Rough Music, Robin has crafted a thriller full of verve and pace and introduces the fearless and Josie King, as she delves into an underworld of religious fanaticism on a personal crusade for vengeance. "A breathless, compelling thriller with sinister religious fanatics, an engaging heroine, a shocking crime and a dark secret, The Unborn is guaranteed to keep you awake deep into the night," Lisa De Silva, Sussex Living Magazine.

It's NYPD's Detective Josie King's last day on the force. As farewell toasts are raised, she receives a text-message that stops her breathing. Olive, her one-year-old goddaughter has been kidnapped! Now no longer a cop, and without the department's weight and resources behind her, she doggedly follows the clues the kidnapper sends her, determined to bring little Olive home. She knows this is personal. Someone is messing with her head, but who, and why? With the clock counting down and the hours shrinking, Josie finds Olive isn't the only person close to her being targeted by a monster from her past.
