Romance Contemporary

The most dangerous killer? The one who hides in plain sight.

Sandy DeGianni, new crime reporter for Police Digest Magazine, figured digging up fresh information about a series of historical cold cases would spice up an otherwise tame assignment.

Instead she’s up to her neck in trouble with her editorβ€”and the subject of some uncomfortable police scrutiny. Especially from a handsome detective who will neither confirm nor deny that the prime suspect, the mysterious β€œMr. Vanish”, really exists.

Ted doesn’t know how Sandy got her hands on secret police files, but it’s his job to plug the leak. And rescue the feisty, spirited journalist from a sudden series of freakish accidents. No doubt in Ted’s mind, the mastermind behind the mishaps could only be Dr. Vanish, untouchable master of disguise.

As they try to stay ahead of a rising tide of dead bodies, sparks of attraction have Sergeant Gaine walking a dangerously thin line between public protector who must keep Sandy at arm’s length, and a man in love who’d make any sacrifice to keep her safe.

This Retro Romance release was originally published in 1990 by Harlequin.
