Two children try to bring down a child trafficking ring that has murdered several children they knew. Stella Fargo is their one chance of not being killed, too. As she searches for them in an Appalachian forest, the trafficking ring hunts her.
I FEARED I’D FAILED HER. I drove through the torrents of cold rain at midnight looking for a mailbox with a red and white sweater hanging from it. No GPS. Nothing guided me to a sweater on a damned mailbox. I had been in the area too long, driving too many miles, but I had not found the right road. Panicked and exhausted, I worried that I’d missed her, or that they had already grabbed Callista.
A complicated relationship with her mother turns deadly after Stella Fargo does an innocent favor for a widowed friend, three violent men try to kidnap and kill her. They want the murdered husband’s hidden millions of dollars of drugs and money.
I felt knocked back by the anger and tone of the man at the mention of Hannah Pickett’s name. Sheriff’s cars and trucks stood parked on the road I needed to take as far as I could see. Two SUVs, late comers, parked behind the others.

I’ve been a news junky since I was a small child. My mother read the newspaper to me. My father was away for months at a time on active duty in the Navy.
