When
Micah died Sable thought her troubles were over but she’s plunged back into her
nightmare when another family member comes after her. He’s not only after
what’s left of the Reardon family, but before he murders them he wants to bring
down Gabriel’s empire. Sable has to fight to keep herself alive and the others.
Will she survive the day of reckoning?
Excerpt:
"I
know you’re probably wondering what I’m doing here," Gabriel began. He had
to pause for a moment then he continued as he laid the envelope on her desk. "I
received this in the mail the other day. I’m not really sure what to do with
it."
He
pushed the envelope over to her then waited while she picked it up. Sable
glanced at it, unable to recognize the writing. The letter was addressed to "The
Honorable Gabriel Reardon."
Sable
glanced over at him asking, "May I?"
He
watched as she opened the envelope.
Shocked
at the contents of the envelope, she pulled out a birth certificate, a photograph
of a small child, and a note. Picking up the photo of the child, she looked it
over carefully. The child appeared to be around four to six years old. His hair
was a dark color although it was hard to tell. She couldn’t take her eyes off
the child‘s face. What drew her gaze was the color of the boy’s eyes. Sable
glanced at the birth certificate and quickly read the note. When she finished,
she glanced at Gabriel. "Is this for real?"
"As
far as I can make out it is," Gabriel said.
A
sense of dread filled her as she reread the letter in the envelope. "You murdered my father. I’m here to
even the score so watch your backs because you won’t see me coming until its
too late. Vengeance shall be mine." The letter was signed Sam.
Sable
picked up the birth certificate again and read it carefully. It said a son
named Sam had been born to Abbey Larsen one year after Sable had been left for
dead in the dry well. The certificate named Micah Reardon as the father of the
baby. Doing some math Sable determined Sam was about twenty years old.
Nick
and Max were in the office. She had forgotten Quentin and Brandi were out on
another case. They would be gone for another three weeks.
"Nick,"
Sable called out. "We have a problem."
Maura
for Coffee Time Reviews says:
"The
plot is suspenseful and spine tingling by turns and never boring."
