  A US MARSHAL THRILLER 
  The Benningtons appear to be the all-American dream family until their daughter, Melissa, witnesses the chilling murder of her closest friends. Forced to flee from the ruthless killers, the entire family enters the federal witness protection program. 
  Assigned to safeguard the Benningtons in their new life in Billings, Dirk Sterling and his US Marshals team anticipate a routine assignment. However, their task takes a dangerous turn when assassins descend upon the town with one objective: to eliminate Melissa. 
  As the chaos unfolds, Dirk and his partner Hank find themselves confronting a daunting challenge. In the history of the Witness Protection Program, no witnesses who have followed the rules have ever been found. The question is, who broke the rules that led the killers to Billings. With bullets whizzing, Dirk and Hank must defy the odds to shield the family from a fate that could mark the program's first epic failure.

  London, June 1814: Mary and Jane are less than charmed by their brother Charles's courtship with a girl from the local cheese shop. When Miss Winnet Davies is not swooning from the heat, she's imploring Charles to buy her a pretty dress. But he hasn't a tuppence—nor have they, as their father, philosopher William Godwin, is facing the prospect of debtor's prison. 
   
   
   
  When a constable arrives at the Godwin home the following day, looking for Charles, Mary and Jane learn that the lifeless body of Miss Davies was found hanging from a tree branch and an examination revealed she was with child. 
   
   
   
  Before they can search, a terrifying Bow Street Runner named Fisher calls and announces his intention to court Mary. Even if she wasn't infatuated with married poet and radical Percy Shelley, she is horrified by the massive Bow Street Runner's plan. 
   
   
   
  Mary and Jane alternately enlist the help of the experienced and intimidating Fisher and Shelley himself, who is as enticed by the opportunity to be close to Mary as he is intrigued by the mystery. But the unfortunate shopgirl is only the first to die, and soon the sisters and Shelley face a merciless quarry who will do anything to silence them . . .
