New York Times bestselling author Karen Robards continues her penchant for โfantastic storytellingโ (RT Book Reviews) with this next heart-pumping romantic suspense novel, the tale of a brilliant ornithologist trapped on the remote Attu Island in Alaska, fighting for her lifeโand that of a handsome strangerโbefore theyโre swallowed up in darkness forever.
BOOM. Thatโs the sound that changes everything for Dr. Gina Sullivan, a renowned ornithologist on a group research grant trip on the remote island of Attu, Alaska. When an everyday outing turns sinister at the onset of one of Attuโs infamous storms, Gina expects thunder and lightningโbut what she doesnโt see coming is the small jet plane that drops out of the sky and into the water mere feet from her boat. Even more unprecedented: thereโs a sole survivor from the crash, and he needs Ginaโs help. But it turns out that rescuing the stranger and getting them both out of the oncoming storm is just the beginning. Because the more Gina learns about James โCalโ Callahan, he of brooding eyes and muscled frame, the more she fearsโfor herself, and for him.
Cal has made a career of trading on government secrets and emerging unscathedโuntil a routine pickup goes horribly wrong and lands him in ice-cold water. Literally. He knows the plane crash was no accident and that there could very well be an enemy force currently combing the Alaskan island ensuring there were no survivors. Now if only the arrestingly beautiful bird-watcher with the clear-blue gaze would stop watching him, well, like a hawk. Cal convinces Gina to return to base camp and help him covertly get off the island. But when Gina makes it safely back to camp and finds her entire team murdered, all bets are off, and as darkness envelops the island, she must decide: trust a man she barely knows, or go it alone and risk running straight into the arms of a killer?
