The links between a missing woman and child, a dead woman, and shots being fired at a local courtroom are hard to connect at first, but deputy U.S. marshals Madison James and her partner, Jonas Quinn, discover that the child's mother, Becca, was having an affair with the judge, and that Becca's friend Ava, who was taking care of the boy, is in the witness protection program. As Madison and Jonas race against the clock to find the boy and his babysitter before anyone else does, Madison struggles to recall who killed her husband and tried to kill her. Madison has been falling for Jonas, but needs the closure of finding her husband's killer before she can truly give him her heart. Harris goes lightly on both faith and romance while keeping readers on the edges of their seats in the latest thrilling entry in her U.S. Marshals series, following The Chase, 2021. Fans of Natalie Walters, Rachel Dylan, and Irene Hannon will enjoy this one.
