Bestseller Reece (Second Chance) kicks off a romantic suspense trilogy with this gripping read featuring members of the Last Chance Rescue organization. Former FBI agent Honor Stone was devastated when her lover, Seth Cavanaugh, dumped her after he was accused of murder. What Honor didn't know was that Seth was working undercover to bring down a drug lord. Years later Honor is working as an operative for Last Chance Rescue when Seth requests their help with locating his missing niece. As Honor and Seth work together, their attraction burns as hot as ever. Reece nicely balances steamy encounters with the slow unraveling of clues that lead to a chilling pattern of missing girls. A truly frightening, twisted villain and an action-packed finale make this one a page-turner. (Sept.)
