Thirteen-year-old Theodore Boone thought the danger had passed, but he's about to face off against an old adversary: accused mur­derer and fugitive Pete Duffy.

On a field trip to Washington, DC, Theo spots a familiar face on the Metro: Duffy, who jumped bail and was never seen again. Theo's quick thinking helps bring Duffy back to Strattenburg to stand trial. But now that Duffy knows who he is, Theo is in greater danger than he's ever been in before. Even when every­thing is on the line, Theodore Boone will stop at nothing to make sure a killer is brought to justice.

This smart, fast-paced legal thriller for young listeners is the newest adventure for clever and determined kid lawyer Theo Boone.

    Abduction by Robin Cook is a departure from his usual genre of medical mystery thriller. It suffers from some of the problems found in some of his other books, namely one dimensional flat characters.It is however a rather imaginative and interesting journey to an undersea civilisation which is far more advanced than our own.I did feel like the ending was a bit of a fizzler.

    Fascinating and engaging sci-fi. Using some humor and imagination, Robin Cook has creating a fun read. Well thought out.

    Okay, first I must admit that I wasn’t paying attention to what I was checking out at the library. I listened to this book, checked out from the online library. I looked at the title and the cover and thought “okay, that looks different.” I’d never read Cook before, so I checked it out and added it to the TBR. Then, I started it…..I DO NOT do aliens. And while the Interterrans aren't necessarily aliens, they are not exactly human. So, to say that I actually finished this book says something. After getting into it a few chapters, I went back to the net and looked up the book description. (Should probably have done that before I checked this out.) Anyway, I decided that I was far enough in and slightly interested, so I continued on.Cook is a fantastic writer. He’s intelligent and incredibly imaginative. The content and plot of this book is so beyond believable that I couldn’t help but get interested. Even though I found myself rolling my eyes a few times.The start of the book is set out in the ocean. There is a large drilling operation underway. The president of the company is on board the ship observing these operations since there have been recent difficulties. He boards a submersible with a scientist and captain to go under the water and check out the drilling apparatus. Three divers also enter the water. They will be the ones who actually work on the drilling rig, while the submersible observes. While waiting for the divers to reach depth, the other three venture west to check out a ridge. They are sucked into a deep whole. Shortly after, the divers, in search of the submersible, are also sucked into the whole. Once reunited, they are all in an underground world, much different than our own.The majority of the book describes life in this underground world. And while not aliens, per se, they are humans much different in their own ways. While the life there in Interterra was thought to be similar to Heaven, the crew wanted to go back to earth as they knew it. Overall, I’m okay with the fact that I spent time finishing this book. It was a little interesting and did allow my mind to drift. Unless scientific stories such as these are your thing, I can’t recommend this to you. Otherwise, be my guest! It wasn’t bad!

    Being a long time fan of Robin Cook, I looked forward to reading this one. I experienced a bit of let down with Abduction however. I was not especially enamored with the story. It's about a group of oceanographers who dive deep into the sea to make repairs on a submersible research ship...but what they find is much more than they expected. They stumble upon an underground world, very different than the world above the water. I found myself looking forward to the end of the book very quickly, because, along with being just plain dumb, it seemed that the author was trying to fill the pages with ideas that did not flow together very well. It was so far removed from Dr. Cook's normal genre, I felt rather disappointed that I didn't get my "fix" of what he does best: medical thrillers. I would not recommend this book.
