One conflicted cop must protect a woman living a lie in a suspenseful novel from the national bestselling author of Strength Under Fire.

Michigan State Police trooper Jamie Donovan suspects there's more to waitress Sarah Cline than she lets on. And Sarah, on the run with her son from an abusive ex-husband, won't trust Jamie with the truth.

But when danger—greater than she realized—catches up to Sarah, Jamie confronts the biggest dilemma of his life: uphold his oath or aid and abet the woman he loves?
