Blind Siding

Samantha Pierce thought she was chasing a story. Instead, she became part of one. After a prison interview with a convicted Chinese spy, the investigative journalist is kidnapped off a tourist train pulled by a restored 2-6-6-2 steam engine called "Maryland Thunder." As panic spreads, her fiancé, NIH scientist and railroad buff Ethan Mercer, finds himself drawn into a labyrinth of blind turns and unseen dangers. Blind Siding is a taut, intelligent thriller where the stakes are personal - and nothing is accidental.
