When a child is kidnapped at a presidential retreat, two former Secret Service agents must become private investigators in a desperate search that might destroy them both in this #1 New York Times bestselling thriller.
A daring kidnapping turns a children's birthday party at Camp David into a national security nightmare.
Former Secret Service agents turned private investigators Sean King and Michelle Maxwell don't want to get involved. But years ago Sean saved the First Lady's husband, then a senator, from political disaster. Now the president's wife presses Sean and Michelle into a desperate search to rescue the abducted child.
With Michelle still battling her own demons, the two are pushed to the limit, with forces aligned on all sides against them—and the line between friend and foe impossible to define ... or defend.
