Summary

Barbara Holloway is a low-key attorney in Eugene, Oregon, who left her father’s high-powered firm to handle small legal problems for local residents and ponder her next move. But while trying to sort out her own future, two people, desperate for help, show up on her doorstep: former pro football player Martin Owens and his wife, Binnie. Binnie, who is mute, met her husband when she sneaked aboard his boat while it was docked in Haiti and smuggled herself into the US. Now Immigration is seeking to deport her back to Haiti, which would be a death sentence. Born to a woman from Belize who was kidnapped and enslaved by pirates, Binnie’s only hope is to prove her and her mother’s real identity. With only days to find the truth and protect Binnie, Holloway sets off for Belize. But what she knows is only the tip of the iceberg in what turns out to be one of her most complex, compelling, and dangerous cases yet.

Critic reviews

“Barbara is a compelling character—intelligent and capable yet vulnerable enough for readers to worry about the danger she encounters.” ( Booklist)

Good storyline

Although it took me a while and a read of the reviews to understand that this book is not in line with the other books.

This is an early version with no characters from previous books except, Frank & Bailey.

Good story line, once I saw the connection with the chapters, then I enjoyed the rest of the book.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
