description: Five assassins… One target… Ten million in cash… Winner take all. Former Miami homicide detective Kari Phillips doesn't know she's being hunted. When she entered the Federal Witness Protection Program, she was given a new identity and was moved to a new location. She feels safe now. She's almost finished with the training she needs to start a new career, and her interest in love and intimacy has suddenly been reignited in a big way. Everything's going great…Until a mysterious black SUV starts showing up. Has the man Kari testified against managed to locate her somehow? Unaware that five professional killers are engaged in an unprecedented competition—with a tremendous amount of money on the line—Kari is determined to find out why she's being tailed. And, as her list of friends starts getting shorter and shorter, it soon becomes clear that the man she is falling in love with is the only person on the planet she can trust. Previously published under the title A Thin Ribbon of Smoke.
