Obsession

A sudden surge in crime has left two homeless women dead and Detective Amanda Nettles' Alzheimer's-riddled mother as the prime suspect. Between raising a teenager determined to thwart every protective effort made, and a city hell-bent on shunning her new family based on preconceived ideas about the past-and fear about what the future might hold-she'll have to decide if her obsession with protecting Charlotte is bigger than the needs of her family. Or if they are one and the same.

And if breaking the rules means the end. Of everything, as she knows it.

Baker Jackson Robinson knows all about protecting the seemingly innocent. Except this time he's able to see the big picture a little clearer and the facts aren't adding up. With his wife playing a dangerous game of hide-and-seek with a remorseless serial killer, he doesn't intend to let her fight alone.

No matter what anyone else says.
