Former FBI Special Agent Sloane Burbank has seen her share
of danger. She's faced down a serial killer and survived
life-threatening injuries . . . but she never expected
that danger to invade the lives of her family. . . .
Then her mother is viciously attacked in the posh
Manhattan apartment her parents share and it quickly
becomes clear that this is no ordinary robbery. The
thieves were too clever, too knowledgeable, and so
obviously after something of her father's. But what could
a respected art dealer have done to merit such violence?
When a mysterious message is left for him, Sloane knows
her father's in over his head. Determined to find out the
truth, Sloane discovers a deadly secret buried in his past
that has made him the target of a power-hungry mobster
with a lethal agenda and nothing to lose.
Sloane
is desperate to save her father, but to do so she must
hold on to secrets of her own—especially from FBI Special
Agent Derek Parker, the man she has grown to love deeply.
She knows she must tell him everything, but how can she
betray her father's confidence? Can a couple who's faced
so much survive this ultimate test of trust? Will they
survive at all?
As the decades-old secret claims
the lives of her father's oldest friends and the killer
closes in on him, Sloane finds herself in foreign
territory: alone, facing escalating personal danger, and
hunting a moving target in a world where memories are long
and loyalties are drawn in blood.
