As a missionary in South America, Emily Shaw believes that she is prepared to cope with any emergency. Then handsome rogue Michael Donovan appears in camp, with a wound-and an attitude-that shocks her. However, his charm and courage win her heart, and they share one magical night of passion before he disappears as suddenly as he appeared.
Suddenly Emily finds that she has become the target of a ruthless local gangster. Even after she returns to the States, she is terrorized by thugs, and devastated by the receipt of a grisly package.
Was Michael working for a gang of smugglers? Has she fallen for a man who may be a thief, maybe even a killer? And who is the mysterious person whose name Michael called out in his sleep?
From the lush tropics of South America to the crowded city streets of Washington, D.C., Emily must outwit relentless criminal forces to save her own life, and the life she carries.
