Reviewed by Barbara Buhrer

Three years ago Karin Schaeffer was devastated when her family was brutally murdered. Her partner, Mac MacLawry helped her regain her sanity. Now she has married Mac and is to celebrate their second wedding anniversary. Mac has quit the Maplewood police department and is now vice president of Forensic Security, an exclusive security firm.

On the morning of their anniversary, Mac leaves for work and disappears. His parents are found brutally slain in what seems to be a home invasion gone bad. Police suspect Mac's brother based on DNA evidence. Two weeks later Mac's car, apparently a rental, is found abandoned in Long Island Sound with no trace of a body. Karen is convinced Mac is alive and hires a private investigator. She discovers things about Mac's past connecting him with the Mexican drug cartel. She must find the truth and Mac.

This is a suspense filled plot with many questions and twists and turns. The atmosphere is chilling. The characterization is excellent, especially Karen's who is steadfast in her belief and loyalty to her husband. The level of suspense is constant from page one until the exciting climax.
