About the Book

When PI Jordan Anderson agrees to investigate strange events happening at the Kingman Corporation’s Arlington, Virginia, warehouse, she has no idea she is getting involved in a case of espionage and murder that stretches all the way to Afghanistan.

Through a strange twist of fate, she finds herself reunited with George Kilburn, a man whom she had only recently met socially and wants to know better. She gets her wish when she finds out that he is also investigating the Kingman Corporation—on behalf of a Senate oversight committee. As the two of them join forces, they find themselves tracking down a shipment of highly classified equipment that has been diverted to Afghanistan and looking into the mysterious death of a disbursement officer. With each piece of evidence that is uncovered, another question arises. And as their involvement in the case deepens, so do the feelings that Jordan and George have for each other.

In this mystery novel, a PI and an investigator for a prominent senator look into a case of missing cargo and find themselves dealing with murder, espionage, terrorism, and true love.
