Two people are dead, two others are wounded and the killer
is still on the loose. Cassie Danvers is beside herself
with worry over the eight children in her charge at All
Our
Kids, a foster home outside Washington, DC where she is
the
house mother. The killer walks right into the house with a
police officer sitting at the kitchen table, yet he
escapes
the Capitol City K-9 Unit's best men, women and dogs.
Captain Gavin McCord declares that he will keep Cassie and
her kids safe, find this killer and bring him to justice.
One of the children at the home saw the killing of a
congressman's son that took place right next door to the
foster home, yet he is not willing to talk to anyone.
Neither Cassie nor Gavin can get a peep out of little
Tommy, but they both understand completely, having been
foster children themselves. Cassie and Gavin team up to
find this killer. But is there another kind of teaming up
that is going on here too?
Shirlee McCoy captures your attention from the opening
pages with an intriguing scene of Cassie running for her
life through the woods . . . running from a killer. The
plot moves a mile a minute with one chase or firefight
after the other. Cassie and Gavin are very strong
characters, surrounded by supporting characters of
frightened children, trained police professionals and
working dogs. PROTECTION DETAIL is a story about moving
forward with your life, no matter what life brings. You
can
never go back and do it over again. Ms. McCoy pens this
first book in a new series by Harlequin that will feature
various authors continuing with this story. The Capitol
K-9 Unit series opens with a real winner, and I can't
wait to read the next installments!
After a prominent senator's son is murdered, Capitol K-9
Unit captain Gavin McCord wants answers. The senator was a
mentor to Gavin, and he'll stop at nothing to bring the
killer to justice. With his team of elite K-9 cops and his
loyal dog, Glory, at his side, Gavin discovers that a
child
at Cassie Danvers's nearby foster home may have witnessed
the murder. He's drawn to the determined and beautiful
woman, but she doesn't want him interviewing her
traumatized
charges. Yet trusting Gavin is the only way to stay one
step
ahead of the deadly gunman when Cassie becomes a target.
