Kaitlyn and Erik are sent on a mission to track down Vance Dasvoik, a ruthless monster. His latest thrill—abducting and selling young women.

The mission quickly turns personal for Kaitlyn when she finds Aaliyah beaten, her mind and soul fractured from abuse of the worst kind. Kaitlyn knows firsthand what it's like to be haunted by the past and resolves to bring justice to the elusive Dasvoik.

Excerpt
In the dead of night their
boat went unnoticed by the sentries as the current tossed the boat around. If
they were like most guards they were probably dozing on the job. But she had to
assume they were heavily armed and dangerous. Erik hit the throttle and veered
off at the last second bringing the boat back around again, getting as close as
possible.
Dim lights glowed from some
of the portholes, but most were dark.
Kaitlyn analyzed the wind and
gauged the waves before leaping forward, she grabbed ahold of the ladder rung
and pulled herself up quickly, climbing with ease. Erik was close on her
heels.
Silently Kaitlyn dropped to
the floor, and simply stood there watching, listening. Her mind went cold,
analytical. She could hear muted voices, footsteps scraping, water dripping,
the hum of fluorescent lights. In the distance someone coughed. No one was
aware of their presence.
The ship was old, rusty and
large. It
was 965 foot long and had almost 3,000 shipping containers on it. The
captives could be anywhere. Mentally she went over the blue prints seeking out
the largest rooms where Dasvoik would
most likely sleep. She vectored in a couple of locations.
The stench was
overwhelming—rotten food, feces and urine to name a few mixed with the salty
air. While her sensors were busy sorting out the different scents, sounds and
possible scenarios they could encounter, Kaitlyn panned back and forth scanning
the area, taking in the heat sensors.
Several different caution
symbols illuminated on her internal screen. Nearby an armed guard stood off to
her left. The man was completely unaware he was a breath away from death— if he
made the wrong move.
