Her ex's mysterious death

...is now theirs to solve.

When Brenda Devers sees her estranged--and recently deceased--husband, Scott, at the airport, she reels in shock. She'd buried him three weeks ago--hadn't she? Only now his business troubles have thrust Brenda and her young daughter into sudden do-or-die jeopardy. Luckily the single mom's new neighbor, Ben Clark, is smart, attractive and seemingly trustworthy when police and the FBI are not. A top Colby private investigator, Ben's been hired to protect Brenda. But as he helps her uncover the truth about Scott, the danger factor amps up--and her worst nightmare might be coming true.
