From the celebrated author of The Last Protector comes an
action-packed sequel about a man whose duty to his country threatens the
life of the woman he has vowed to protect.
Ex-Secret Service agent Clayton White doesn't miss the relentless danger
that defined his career. These days, he's enjoying life at sea with his
fiancée--who also happens to be the daughter of the double-dealing vice
president, Alexander Hammond. But for the most part, Clayton has made
peace with his old nemesis.
Then their ship, the NOAAS Surveyor, comes under attack. That same day
in Miami, the Second Lady of the United States is assassinated. Hammond,
who dodged the bullet meant for him, calls upon Clayton to help him hunt
down the responsible party.
Clayton wants nothing to do with the notorious vice president, who
boasts a violent and capricious history. But with his fiancée's life in
the balance, Clayton has no choice. He jumps back into the fray, where
he'll face off with enemies new and old. And unbeknownst to Clayton, a
deep-rooted enemy has been waiting in the shadows and has now set his
sights on him.
This time, it's not just the world Clayton's trying to save--but the
woman he loves.
