He wants her

And someone wants her dead

When Audra Young walks into his office, Detective Copeland Bennett is surprised that this cool, self-assured rancher is asking for his help. At first, he assumes that the urn full of human remains delivered to her house was just a macabre mistake. Yet as the threats against her life become more chilling, he realizes that she needs protection--protection he's determined to provide. But it's going to take a deep dive into her family's hidden past and all of Copeland's skills as an investigator to identify Audra's ruthless antagonist...
