Follow along as USA Today best-selling author Kennedy Layne takes you down a suspenseful path where a ruthless killer is always one step ahead....

Brody Novak has been given his first assignment for Safeguard Security & Investigations, and it has nothing to do with his lead role as a communications specialist. With the rest of the team occupied on a hunt for a serial killer, he's the only one left behind to handle what everyone thought to be an open and shut case. He should have known it wouldn't be that easy.

Remy Kinkaid has faithfully made a phone call once a month for the last four years to ensure the killer who murdered her sister remained behind bars. Every time she's been given the same answer - except today.

Brody and Remy must work together to hunt down a murderer, despite their growing attraction. It isn't safe to give in to their desires when the killer is always one step ahead of them. It's only when he stumbles that Remy is finally given the opportunity to face her past in order to have a future.

Series description: Safeguard Security & Investigations (SSI) is owned and operated by Townes Calvert, a retired marine gunnery sergeant who returned home to the States a bit more damaged than he'd care to admit. Not that anyone could tell outside of a very select group of former active duty buddies. It took Townes quite a while to acclimate to civilian life, and he kept himself busy in the interim working in treacherous situations with even more dangerous friends. The final result is a close-knit unit of highly trained former military men who have the experience to protect the innocent, investigate crimes on the gritty edge, and aid local law enforcement when justice has taken a back seat to political correctness. Follow along as Kennedy Layne conveys each of their gripping stories as they work together on investigations that lead them down perilous paths of passion, intrigue, and suspense....
