  An innocent Seattle sailor is pulled into a dangerous web of espionage in this thriller that “is almost impossible to put the book down” (The Oregonian).   In this “enthralling” thriller by the New York Times–bestselling author, Jay Becker, an overworked, underpaid musician, is trying to earn some extra cash by giving sailing lessons on Puget Sound (The San Diego Union-Tribune). When a mysterious woman named Marlene hires him for what appears to be a simple expedition, he has no idea that he will be drawn into a plot that involves the CIA, the FBI, and a kaleidoscope of spy, counterspy; cross, double-cross—with the lives of himself, the woman he loves, and his best friend hanging in the balance . . .   “Pearson skillfully spins this thriller with sense-of-place, breakneck pace, and economically drawn, believable characters.” —Library Journal

  What should have been a routine investigation for FBI profiler Evelyn Baine turns ominous when she’s kidnapped by a dangerous cult of survivalists. As her worst nightmares become a reality, she begins to question what she’s seeing. Because the longer she’s inside their compound, the more she realizes this group is not what it seems to be. 
   
  As the FBI’s Hostage Rescue Team closes in, Evelyn suspects she’s stumbled onto an emerging terrorist threat—and a cult leader who has a score to settle with the FBI.

  Praise for Seized 
   
  “Elizabeth Heiter does her research, and it shows in this superb FBI thriller. With a ripped-from-the-headlines plot and excellent characterization, Seized is a true winner. Don’t miss it.” —J.T. Ellison, New York Times–bestselling author of What Lies Behind 
   
  “Seized . . . is a taut thriller that could be torn from tomorrow’s newspaper headlines . . . The Profiler series could easily be turned into a dandy television series. Heiter’s latest is a thought-provoking thriller by a rising star in contemporary crime fiction.” —The Lansing State Journal
