17+ due to sexual gritty topic and language.
Kaitlyn and Erik are sent on a mission to track down Vance Dasvoik, a ruthless monster. His latest thrill—abducting and selling young women.
Vance's current victim: Aaliyah, a seventeen-year-old who never imagined walking her brother home from school one evening would change her life forever.
The mission quickly turns personal for Kaitlyn when she finds Aaliyah beaten, her mind and soul fractured from abuse of the worst kind. Kaitlyn knows firsthand what it's like to be haunted by the past and resolves to bring justice to the elusive Dasvoik.
Excerpt:
"In the dead of night their
boat went unnoticed by the sentries as the current tossed the boat
around. If they were like most guards they were probably dozing on
the job. But she had to assume they were heavily armed and dangerous.
Erik hit the throttle and veered off at the last second bringing the
boat back around again, getting as close as possible.
Dim lights glowed from
some of the portholes, but most were dark.
Kaitlyn analyzed the wind
and gauged the waves before leaping forward, she grabbed ahold of the
ladder rung and pulled herself up quickly, climbing with ease. Erik
was close on her heels.
Silently Kaitlyn dropped
to the floor, and simply stood there watching, listening. Her mind
went cold, analytical. She could hear muted voices, footsteps
scraping, water dripping, the hum of fluorescent lights. In the
distance someone coughed. No one was aware of their presence.
The ship was old, rusty
and large. It
was 965 foot long and had almost 3,000 shipping containers on
it. The
captives could be anywhere. Mentally she went over the blue prints
seeking out the largest rooms where Dasvoik would
most likely sleep. She vectored in a couple of locations.
The stench was
overwhelming—rotten food, feces and urine to name a few mixed with
the salty air. While her sensors were busy sorting out the different
scents, sounds and possible scenarios they could encounter, Kaitlyn
panned back and forth scanning the area, taking in the heat sensors.
Several different caution
symbols illuminated on her internal screen. Nearby an armed guard
stood off to her left. The man was completely unaware he was a breath
away from death— if he made the wrong move."
