Distant Memory
$14.99She couldn’t remember her name, her address, her family, not even why someone wanted her dead–
Who is she?
She had lost her wallet, her identity–everything except the clothes on her back–and her life.
She awoke in a room she didn’t remember, asleep on a bed she did not recognize, in a hotel she had never heard of, bruised and battered from an incident she couldn’t recall.
Then her life turned complicated.
Befriended by a truck driver who takes her under his wing, she sets about to rediscover–and reclaim–the life she’s lost. But despite appearances, she’s not really alone. Two men–one, a hardened killer; the other; a methodical, high-tech tracker–stalk her every move. Even Nick–the good Samaritan truck driver helping her–may not be all that he appears.
Locked in her mind is a secret worth killing for-and worth living for.
More than anything, she wants her memory–and life–back. Others will stop at nothing to make sure she never remembers anything again. For though she does not know it, deep in her mind is buried a secret that threatens to bring down one of the richest men in the world. A secret that can shake governments to their very foundations. A secret that could lead to her destruction–or her salvation.Add to cartin stock within 3-5 days of online purchase
