While gunfire erupts around a villa tied to an elusive illegal arms dealer, Garrett is critically wounded and dies in Jason’s arms. Consumed by grief and rage, Jason vows to bring Felix Picard down, even without identification or solid leads. The narrative sets a high-stakes pursuit driven by determination, danger, and moral resolve.","“I don’t think you saw a body being dumped.”  \n“If it wasn’t a body, then what? Drugs? Weapons?”  \nThe woman wasn’t going to relent, was she?“The Colombian drug cartel has a pipeline to the U.S. through the Keys. Arms dealers are a dime a dozen, especially around the Gulf of Mexico.”  \nDetective Angie Carlucci peered at him with suspicion in her eyes.“You’re not a simple boat captain. Who are you?”  \nFor her own good, he couldn’t reveal his identity. If she kept pushing, she’d find out how dangerous things could get.“Trust me, you’ll be safer if you pretend you didn’t see anything.”  \n“No can do. I’ve sworn an oath to uphold the law.”  \nJason shook his head with exasperation and admiration. The woman was a spitfire determined to do the right thing. He couldn’t blame her. But she had no idea what kind of hornet’s nest she’d stumbled into.  \nThat meant it was up to Jason to keep Detective Carlucci safe.  \n[OceanofPDF.com](OceanofPDF.com)  \nBooks by Terri Reed Love Inspired Suspense  \nStrictly Confidential *Double Deception  \nBeloved Enemy Her Christmas Protector *Double Jeopardy  \n*Double Cross  \n*Double Threat Christmas  \nHer Last Chance  \nChasing Shadows  \nCovert Pursuit  \nLove Inspired  \nLove Comes Home  \nA Sheltering Love  \nA Sheltering Heart  \nA Time of Hope  \nGiving Thanks for Baby  \n[OceanofPDF.com](OceanofPDF.com)  \nTERRI REED  \nAt an early age Terri Reed discovered the wonderful world of fiction and declared she would one day write a book.
