Ripped Bodice

Someone is after Dr. Sarah Gordon. They’ve stalked her and set a fire at her home. Trying to recover from the traumatic deaths of her husband and infant daughter is tough enough, but she has no idea what will come next. Her late husband’s best friend and a recovering alcoholic detective are trying to solve the mystery before it’s too late, but both appear to be vying for her affection as well.

Sarah reached to her left across the king-size bed, but when her hand touched a bare pillow she realized her husband wasn’t there. He was dead. He’d been dead for eight months now. So had her daughter. Sarah was alone… in a burning house.

Or was she alone? Had she really heard a noise? Was someone down there, waiting for her to come down those stairs? She couldn’t stay up here and burn to death, though. What should she do? Rules and admonitions, read or heard long ago and almost forgotten, swirled through her mind. Sarah stopped and forced herself to think logically, just as she would when faced with a problem in the emergency room.

She threw on a robe, shoved her feet into slippers, grabbed her cell phone and in a few strides covered the distance to the door leading from her bedroom into the hall. Feel the door. If it’s hot, find some other way out.

Cautiously, she pressed her palm against the door…
