When a woman is kidnapped and her husband refuses to pay the ransom, she plans her revenge with the help of her kidnappers. She frames her husband for her “murder” in this clever tale of redemption. A contemporary, fast-paced thriller, A Decent Ransom blends pathos with trickery and intrigue, drawing the reader into the private world of a vulnerable fifteen-year-old boy who believes himself to be the keeper and protector of a kidnapped woman.

  •  “Original in its conception and delivered with terrifying authenticity, A Decent Ransom is absolutely riveting …”—Lynne Bradley, Executive Director, Zen Zen Zo Physical Theatre
