Description
What lengths will a wife and mother go to save her family? Popular web radio interviewer Bo Riccardi is tested to the ends of her mental and physical limits when her husband Oscar is abducted. The man holding him demands to be interviewed by Bo. Refusal will mean Oscar’s brutal death, but acceptance propels Bo toward madness and despair.
Though she has a form of synesthesia that enables her to see the abductor’s intentions and feelings in everything he says, Bo will need much more than this gift to help her save Oscar—and exorcise the guilt that binds her to the kidnapper.
Advance Praise
“This thrilling tale of vengeance and suspense is a cat-and-mouse chase, and race, to the pull-no-punches, take-no-prisoners finish.” - Jenny Milchman, USA Today bestselling author of Cover of Snow & Wicked River
The relentlessly rising tension kept me squirming all the way to the end.” - Roger Johns, award-winning author of the Wallace Hartman Mysteries
“Non-stop, pulse-pounding action with a protagonist who must use her gift of chromesthesia to see into the heart of a killer and save her family. This one is a heart-stopper!” - Emily Carpenter, author of Burying the Honeysuckle Girls, The Weight of Lies, and Every Single Secret
“Spellbinding…Explosive…Gifted storyteller George Weinstein keeps the dramatic tension as he takes readers on the ultimate thrill ride.” - Dana Ridenour, award-winning author of the Lexie Montgomery FBI undercover series
“The reason a reader stays with a novel is because the novel stays with a reader. George Weinstein’s Watch What You Say is such a book. Unique, tense, teasing, perplexing, made of twists and turns that only a creative writer could conjure, this is a story of a gifted radio personality tormented by a man who has kidnapped her husband and manipulates social media for the sake of vengeance, leaving injury in its wake. Weinstein’s versatility as a writer—the ability to handle numerous genres—proves again that he understands his audience.” —Terry Kay, international best-selling author of To Dance with the White Dog, The Book of Marie, and The King Who Made Paper Flowers

This book grabs you in early! Oscar is kidnapped almost right from the start. Oscar's wife, Bo, and daughter, Candice (17), are not at home when this happens. Although we know from the beginning that Deke Powell is the kidnapper (well, Oscar is in his forties - hardly a kid), the amount of suspense is not affected.
Bo hosts a daily talk show where they call her "The Barracuda" because she is tough on those she interviews. Her office politics are a bit rough. On a Monday, she gets an on-air call from Deke using a sound synthesizer, telling her to call him "Oscar". She has no idea who he is. Deke is slowly torturing Oscar when Bo doesn't comply with the answers he wants. - Deke breaks a couple fingers, smashes a hand all on Oscar.
What many of the people involved with Bo do not know is that she has Chromesthesia - a genetic condition that allows her to tell a person's verbal intent by hearing "colors". This comes in handy many times when her radio show/podcast is in session. (And in real life, as well).
Bo now is forced to compromise herself, in any way possible, to have Oscar released from his kidnapper. Twists occur and they arrive quite unexpected. The only problem I had was that I did not care for Bo, the leading lady. She was too willful and stubborn. She had her own agenda for awhile...
A good read!
Many Thanks to SKF Press and NetGalley for a good read.
