ABOUT THE BOOK
Former combat medic Kory Wagner survived four war zones. Now she’s
home and out of the Army for good and someone is trying to kill her in her own
backyard. Just as disturbing is the handsome sheriff who’s on the case. Sheriff
Sean Harding doesn’t quite know what to think of the decorated veteran that
managed to outsmart an entire search party. What bothers him more is the body
of a PI, whom she hired, was found dead in a building she owns. And Kory isn’t being
very cooperative with helping him find the answers as to why someone would kill
her sister and want her dead. Will he be able to keep her alive along enough to
discover the truth?
AN EXCERPT
Sean followed the trail of blood to
the back of the warehouse. She had definitely been hit -- question was how bad?
Was she the one who called in the shooting? If so he didn't blame her for not
sticking around, not when someone was trying to kill her. He was surprised she
called the police at all.
He stepped out into the late
afternoon sunlight. The last traces of blood were found halfway between the
building and the edge of the woods. There wasn't any skid marks in the side
parking lot indicating a hasty retreat, and there were no casings. Did the
shooter have an accomplice waiting at the back door just in case, or did she
manage to escape into the woods?
Deputy McKee joined Sean at the edge
of the woods. "Find anything?"
"No. The blood trail ends over
there. Judging from the distance between droplets she was running at a pretty
good pace."
"There's only one car in the
parking lot. Do you think they came together, or did she park back here?"
"They either came together or
she came in soon after he did thru the front door. The trajectory of the
bullets suggests she was near the front of the building when she was hit and
exited through the back door."
"So she either managed to make
it back to her car near the front of the building or she's on foot," the
deputy said.
Sean looked toward the tree line.
"If I were her and I had someone shooting at me I'd head for the woods.
More places to hide than on a highway. Assemble a search team and have them
start looking just in case. And notify the local hospital to be on the lookout
for her. If she comes in I want her held for questioning."
