"It took Andrea Finch six tough years to build her reputation with the Austin police department -- and one tragic split-second decision to blow it to shreds. The only upside of having her job on the line and her confidence shattered is that she's got little left to lose. Which is why, when her younger brother, Gavin, calls looking for money, Andrea tracks him down to a dusty Texas border town, hoping to figure out what kind of trouble he's in and how to stop it. The moment FBI agent Jon North offers to buy her a drink, she knows it must be worse than she thought. He's tight-lipped and taciturn, disclosing little except that they're watching Shay Hardin, the low-life thug who's led Gavin astray once before. But what Andrea does glean -- about an off-the-radar terror cell and a deadly revenge scheme -- unsettles her even more than her visceral reaction to Jon. As much as she wants to believe in her brother's innocence, his presence here can't be coincidence. Not when Gavin's specialized computer skills make him such a valuable and potentially lethal asset."--Book jacket. |
