Ben Lopez spends his life traveling the world, bartering with people who value money over life. Working for governments, law enforcement agencies, multinational corporations and private clients, Ben is an expert K&R (Kidnap and Ransom) consultant, supplying professional kidnap-negotiation services. He can be called out to anywhere in the world within twenty-four-hour notice to set up and command the negotiator's cell, bargaining with religious fanatics, hardened criminals, and other desperate people in order to save the lives of their captives. Alongside a shadowy team of former spies and special operatives, his arsenal of psychological techniques is just as powerful as brute force. He'll spend as long as is necessary to get the job done. And then he'll disappear.
This extraordinary book reads like a thriller—but for those involved in the stories within it, the drama and the tension are very real.

About the Author:
Ben Lopez was born in New York and spent part of his childhood in Venezuela, where he witnessed firsthand the devastating effects of Kidnap and Ransom (K&R). His work has taken him across the globe, from Mexico to the Middle East. In more than twenty years in the K&R field he has never lost a hostage. Ben Lopez isn't his real name; if his name was known, it would be too dangerous for him to travel to many countries ever again.
Review:
“In addition to lifting the curtain on the intricate world of K&R, the author also sheds light on his remarkable life and how his ongoing efforts to restore other people’s interrupted lives have cost him personally....Thrilling and illuminating.” (Kirkus Reviews)

“Strong suspense and drama permeate these pages of real life hostage negotiations.” (Publishers Weekly)
