Frank has been many things: a husband, a father, a protector, a thief. Then a prison term took it all away. Now his daughter only calls to say that she hates him. She has her reasons, and he doesn’t blame her. Besides, as long as she keeps calling, there’s hope that someday he can make up for the time they lost. But when a man shows up with a cheap Chinese pistol and the locket his daughter once wore, Frank has to decide how far he will go to prove his love—and save her life. A story of love, loyalty, and the costs of fatherhood, The Days When You Were Anything Else is a haunting thrill ride from one of America’s most acclaimed suspense writers. Revised edition: This edition of The Days When You Were Anything Else includes editorial revisions.
