For breathless action, gripping suspense, and intense romance, bestselling author  Linda Howard never misses a beat—and her thrilling new novel will have your heart  racing.  In the charming rural town of Trail Stop, Idaho, accessible to the outside  world by only a single road, young widow Cate Nightingale lives peacefully with her  four-year-old twin boys, running a bed-and-breakfast. Though the overnight guests  are few and far between—occasional hunters and lake fishermen—Cate always manages  to make ends meet with the help of the local jack-of-all-trades, Calvin Harris, who  can handle everything from carpentry to plumbing. But Calvin is not what he seems,  and Cate’s luck is about to run out. One morning, the B&B’s only guest inexplicably  vanishes, leaving behind his personal effects. A few days later Cate is shocked when  armed men storm the house, demanding the mystery man’s belongings. Fearing for her  children’s lives, Cate agrees to cooperate—until Calvin saves the day, forcing the  intruders to scatter into the surrounding woods.  The nightmare, however, is just  beginning. Cate, Calvin, and their entire community find themselves cut off and alone  with no means to call for help as the threat gathers intensity and first blood is  drawn. With their fellow residents trapped and the entire town held hostage, Cate  and Calvin have no choice but to take the fight to their enemies under the cover  of night. While reticent Cal becomes a fearless protector, Cate makes the most daring  move of her life . . . into the very heart of danger.
