Tom Messingham and Tasha, Jaclyn Johnson's teenage ward, are safe and sound on the east coast following Jaclyn's daring mission to Las Vegas, and it's time for her to head west again-this time to break up the human trafficking ring that had ensnared Tasha a year prior. Yet as she arrives in Tasha's hometown, Jaclyn has several obstacles-a town wiped from the map, plus a persnickety police chief with one foot in the grave-to overcome before she can keep her promise to her new friend. Set between the novels DOUBLE AGENT and FEDERAL AGENT, Jaclyn Johnson squares off against an unknown pervert in another nail-biting thriller.
