But Honor soon discovers that even those close to her can't be trusted. Coburn claims that her beloved late husband possessed something extremely valuable that places Honor and her daughter in grave danger. Coburn is there to retrieve it, at any cost. From FBI offices in Washington, DC to a rundown shrimp boat in coastal Louisiana, Coburn and Honor run for their lives from the very people sworn to protect them and unravel a web of corruption and depravity that threatens not only them but the fabric of our society.

"I was in the mood for a thrilling page turner and this book hit the spot. Sandra Brown does such a good job with her different characters, adds a little intrigue, romance and a twisted "who-is-it" at the end. I flew through this book and would highly suggest it to anyone looking for a good read."

— Kellie, 1/28/2013" Another great Sandra Brown read! "

— Donnette, 3/28/2012" When I first heard the reader, I really liked his voice, until other male characters appeared. It became very hard to distinguish between them. I have realized I have already read this book in the past. Listening to this book before I go to bed causes me to skip parts. I don't think I will continue. "

— Melissa, 10/29/2011" Hey -- this is a great read for a Saturday afternoon with snow falling in Virginia.<br/>Not too deep, not too gruesome, and a good twist at the ending.<br/>Get it from the library and curl up.<br/>Worth the time! "
— Marie, 10/29/2011" I haven't enjoyed the last few of Sandra Brown's books, so I was a bit hesitant to pick this up.... so glad I did. Thoroughly enjoyed this romantic suspense - again it was heavier on the suspense than her early books, but the romance was more developed than some of her more recent stories. "
