Description
Summary:"When Peter Ash rescues a stranded woman, he finds she's in far deeper trouble than he ever could have imagined. While driving through northern Nebraska, war veteran Peter Ash encounters a young pregnant woman alone on a gravel road, her car dead. Never one to abandon someone in distress, Peter offers her a lift, but what begins as an act of kindness soon turns into a deadly chase across the lonely highways, with the woman's vicious ex-cop husband hot on their trail. The pregnant woman has seen something she was never meant to see... but protecting her might prove to be more than Peter can handle. In order to save the woman and himself, he must use everything he learned during his time as a Marine, including his knowledge of human nature, in order to escape a ruthless killer with instincts and skills that match--and perhaps exceed--Peter's own."--Back cover.
