Classic romantic suspense from New York Times bestselling author Carla Neggers.

Security consultant Quinn Harlowe just started an independent career and is enjoying a relaxed new lifestyle in her bayside cottage when she finds her friend and former colleague dead outside. Local law enforcement deems it suicide. Quinn is doubtful. Investigating on her own, she finds that someone is following her every move. Huck McCabe claims he’s a bodyguard at Breakwater, a high-security compound nearby. But the truth? McCabe is an undercover agent trying to penetrate a violent network of vigilantes — the same people Quinn has identified. Together they come up against a conspiracy that could blow the lid off the Department of Justice.
