    “Taylor is one of today’s premiere authors writing about the world of special ops.” 
    —Associated Press 
    Former Special Forces officer Brad Taylor’s thrilling new novella sets Pike Logan and Jennifer Cahill against a Serbian gang that makes the mistake of kidnapping someone they both hold dear. 
    Pike Logan and Jennifer Cahill are no strangers to international conflict, but this time they’re facing a threat much closer to home. Amena, the young Syrian refugee they have taken into their care, is having trouble settling into her new life in South Carolina. As they all struggle to figure out the bounds of their new life, a fight with Pike sends Amena running to the streets of Charleston, where she befriends a girl and her Serbian guardian who may not be as harmless as they seem. 
    Pike, wild with worry over Amena’s disappearance, makes it his mission to bring her home safely, but she is in much more danger than they realize. To make matters worse, classified nuclear information may also be on the line. While Pike is on the warpath, Amena learns of the Serbian’s true nature and the terrible ‘exit fee’ he exacts from girls who don’t play by his rules. 
    Now it’s up to Pike to find her— but the risk will be much higher than he imagines. 
    Includes an excerpt from Brad Taylor's upcoming Pike Logan thriller, Hunter Killer.

    Since my divorce, women have served a solitary purpose for me. The last thing I needed in my life was the headache of a relationship. I had no time or energy for anyone other than my son and my club. 
     
     
     
    But when a chance encounter with my son's teacher turned into something I didn't expect, I tossed aside all my reservations and took a chance. 
     
     
     
    I should've kept my distance. I should've listened when she told me she had doubts about us, suspicions which she was yet to find out were justified, and let her walk away. 
     
     
     
    When our situation with the club heated up, posing a threat to everyone I knew, I could've convinced myself being without her was the best choice. But I was selfish and refused to picture my life without her. 
     
     
     
    Will my decision to keep her close put her further in danger, exposing her to a life she never asked for? 
     
     
     
    And would she be able to find it in her heart to forgive me if my fear ever came true? 
     
     
     
    Contains mature themes.

    But now Michael Brady must tell one family their daughter has been found. 
    And break the bad news to the other family. 
    No-one was ever convicted. Everyone’s convinced the killer is in jail.

    Brady has to re-open the old wounds. He has to find the real killer. And he has to stop seeing the similarities between his daughter and one of the murdered girls.
