âA compelling, suspenseful story filled with nonstop actionâ¦a definite page-turner.â âRT Book Reviews, 4.5 stars Twelve people have been shot at point-blank range and left to rot in the desert sun. Itâs Sophia St. Claireâs job to do something about it. Sheâs Bordertown, Arizonaâs new chief of policeâand sheâs out of her depth. Help arrives in the form of Department 6 hired gun Roderick Guerrero. As far as Sophiaâs concerned, his involvement only makes things worse. Maybe heâs managed to turn his life around. And maybe heâs a good investigator. But as the bastard son of a wealthy local rancher, he has a history he canât get past. A history that includes her. Rod refuses to leave town until the killer is caught. Heâs not worried about the danger posed by some vigilante. Itâs Sophia who threatens him. Because heâs used to risking his lifeâbut his heart is another story. Originally published in 2010
