Humanitarian aid workers battle both the CIA and the Russian FSB, all while trying to rescue an orphaned infant in Dees’ latest tale of romantic suspense.  When Katie McCloud agrees to travel to Zaghastan to translate for Dr. Alex Peters, a Doctors Unlimited volunteer, she doesn’t know they’ll be fighting for their lives as Alex delivers babies in the war-torn country.  But when she recognizes military drones and advanced weaponry, thanks to brothers who are in the special forces, Katie knows she and the doctor are in trouble.  After Alex performs an emergency C-section as a battle rages around them and the child’s mother dies, they desperately  need help.  Alex, the son of a Soviet spy, calls his hated father for an airlift out of the country.  Back in the U.S., however, the attacks on their lives continue, making Katie and Alex suspect that they know something they shouldn’t.  But what is it?  In a panic, Katie calls her CIA-involved uncle, putting them in the crosshairs of both spy groups, making for an intense cat-and-mouse thrill ride. --Pat Henshaw
