New York Times bestselling author Karen Robards
continues her penchant for “fantastic storytelling” (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 life—and that of a handsome stranger—before they’re
swallowed up in darkness forever.
BOOM. That’s
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 Attu’s infamous storms, Gina
expects thunder and lightning—but what she doesn’t 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: there’s a sole survivor from the crash, and
he needs Gina’s 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
“Cal” Callahan, he of brooding eyes and muscled frame, the
more she fears—for herself, and for him.
Cal has
made a career of trading on government secrets and emerging
unscathed—until 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?
