Part of Krewe of Hunters, book 38
First published 2022
Jordan Wallace thought she had the human trafficking ring figured out. The FBI agent spent months building her case, getting close to the breakthrough that would bring down the operation. Then everything goes wrong. Her undercover mission falls apart, leaving her exposed and vulnerable. Criminal psychologist Patrick Law arrives just in time to prevent complete disaster, but Jordan knows she looked like an amateur in front of her new partner. Now the bureau pairs them together on the same case. Patrick reads criminals like open books, a skill that makes him valuable to the Krewe of Hunters unit. Jordan worries he can read her thoughts just as easily. Patrick promises her mind stays private, but Jordan fears her heart might not. She never learned to rely on backup. A killer wants both agents dead, and Jordan must decide whether trusting Patrick will save their lives or destroy everything she built to protect herself.
