Hayden arrives in New York to continue the investigation into Arlene Cuddy, a former university hire involved in kidnapping college students. After Arlene's escape from the authorities, Hayden must not only recapture her but shut down what appears to be a global sex trafficking ring that dabbles in politics and blackmail too. At least so far.
Andrea Galanis, a budding journalist, never imagined her life would spiral into a whirlwind of danger and intrigue. When a criminal network targets her, she must rely on Hayden, a former Navy SEAL and old friend, to navigate the treacherous waters of kidnapping and extortion on a worldwide scale.
As Andrea and Hayden unravel a web of deceit stretching across elite universities, rich countries, and powerful families, she must confront her own past, while living under her influential father's shadow.
With lives hanging in the balance, can they outsmart their enemies and find a future together, even when every decision could mean life or death for them-and for the other victims too?
