Book description
When she turned the page and her gaze flickered over the date on top it
was as though the lightning outside had somehow grounded right into her.
A billion volts of pain, a shriek of anguish you could actually see, and
feel, as it pierced her. Camp David, USA. A birthday party turns into a
nightmare when a child is snatched after the celebrations. The First
Lady enlists the services of Sean King and Michelle Maxwell to bring the
child home safely. But she and King share a past. Years ago he saved her
then senator husband from political disaster. And this may not be all
that passed between them. With Michelle still battling her own demons,
the two are pushed to the limit, with forces aligned on all sides
against them - and the line between friend and foe impossible to define
. . . or defend.
