2010. After graduating from university in Moscow, a native of Argentina, Agata Garcia Lopez, should return to her homeland. Before leaving home, she decides to visit Yemen, where her good university friend Andrey Zorin serves at the Russian embassy. However, a few days after her arrival in the Yemeni capital, a war begins in the strife-torn country. To return to Moscow, the girl will have to take part in an operation to evacuate Russian citizens. And at the same time to sort out her feelings for the friend who invited her…

    SILENT PRAYER (A Sheila Stone Suspense Thriller—Book 8) is the eighth book in a long-anticipated new series by #1 bestseller and USA Today bestselling author Blake Pierce, whose bestseller The Perfect Wife (a free download) has received over 20,000 five star reviews.
    
    With her Olympic dreams crumbled, Sheila, 28, struggles to find her place back home. She is surrounded by reminders of what could have been, stuck inside the shadow of her older sister: the golden child, the respected sheriff. But when her sister persuades her to join the local police force, Sheila’s life and career start anew.
    
    As she hunts serial killers, Sheila notices clues that others miss and offers a perspective that no one else has. She realizes she has a talent outside of fighting, and that she has a chance to embrace a new life in Salt Lake—a life outside the ring.
    
    This is a different kind of ring, though. Sheila quickly realizes that to survive, she will need more than just her strength—she’ll need a brilliance to match that of even the most diabolical killer….
    Can Sheila win this match? Or will she finally lose it all?
    
    A page-turning and harrowing suspense thriller featuring a brilliant and tortured protagonist, the SHEILA STONE series is a riveting mystery, packed with suspense, twists and turns, revelations, and driven by a breakneck pace that will keep you flipping pages late into the night.
