Sara Jennings’ husband, a DEA agent, is murdered, and she’s sent into the Witness Protection Program; but two years later an attack on her at her new residence under her new name, sends her back home to Phoenix.Her husband’s best friend, James MacIntyre (also a DEA agent), puts her up until she can get settled. And he tries to protect her—which isn’t easy. Sara has frequent dangerous encounters due to her own wrong choices and not taking the threat to her life seriously. She has something the drug traffickers want and doesn’t know it.Numerous turf wars between the government agencies keep us wondering about a mole within the ranks. The bad guys, likewise, have problems within themselves. Everything is on a tight roller-coaster ride as the story moves forward. The countdown until the mole is exposed and the work-up getting to the drug cartel’s leader create the intricate plot.Elements of faith are nicely woven into the story, forming a backdrop of Christianity with which most Christians will identify. Both main characters are well developed, and the chaste love story between Sara and Mac is well done. In fact, if I could find a guy like Mac, I’d marry him, too. J
