Packed with "high suspense" and "memorable choices and consequences"
(Booklist) Kiki Swinson's novels sizzle with a uniquely gritty
portrait of Southern life. Now she breaks all the rules with a story of
a young woman with two targets on her back who tries to keep those she
loves--and herself--alive . . .
Run for cover
It was supposed to be easy money. A few exchanges for cash, one big
payoff, and then life would be better than ever with bills all paid and
money in her pocket. But the plan fell apart and now she's made an
enemy. He's a drug cartel leader out to destroy any competition--and get
payback by any means necessary . . .
Play for time
Under federal protection, she's only steps ahead as the cartel leader
starts killing off her family and friends. When he kidnaps a relative
and demands her in exchange, she and a desperate DEA agent work a bold
switch to nail him. But the fallout is disastrous--and
deadly . . .
Do anything to survive
Now the local police are closing in on her as the prime suspect in her
abusive boyfriend's disappearance. She's got no choice but to ditch the
feds and take down her merciless pursuer on her own. But with no
options, no help, and the clock running down, this not-so-innocent
victim's only shot may be the one risk that takes her out for good . . .
