Wyatt Rose can’t overcome his loss—especially after his sister’s murder. When the New Patriots recruit him, he finds a traumatized girl that spirals him into a rabbit hole of conspiracy, drug smugglers, and slavery.

WHEN REVENGE SPARKS DANGER — KARMA IS HELL!
Excerpt:
Through the clearing clouds, the full moon cast an eerie glow across the boatyard. Shadows danced with the night breeze to the mystical music of creaking docks and soft splashes of waves lapping against the shoreline. But darkness lurked in the shadows, whispering beneath a distant hum of rushing cars whisking across Key Bridge and echoing under the Whitehurst Freeway.
A chill slithered down Harper’s back, and her stomach tightened as she motioned the team’s approach. Despite endless missions in Iraq and Afghanistan, she never got used to the adrenaline rush shooting through her at the onset of each operation. This mission held the same gut reaction.
She tapped her earbud. “I need eyes, Steel. What do you see?” She scanned the building, noting all entrances within view from her vantage point.
“Nothing, ma’am. No PIR motion detected and negative on the thermal sensor, no body heat visible in the structure. I’m not surprised, according to Staff Sergeant Rose, the perp already moved his stable of kids. If he left the girl, she’s dead. Any chance he set up trip wires to trigger an IED?”
Harper’s pulse escalated and she drew in a long breath to rein in her angst. “I doubt he had time to rig a bomb. Wyatt, can you––”
“On it.”
Damn. With any luck they’d find and empty building…but if Damien stuck to his word, he might have left Hanna’s sister strung-up in the boathouse. The thought sent a shiver down Harper’s arms and she tightened the grip on her gun.
After several long minutes, Wyatt’s voice finally rang through her earbud. “Clear.”
“Go, go, go.” Her command initiated the rest of the team.
Parker took the lead. “NCIS.” He shoved a foot against the door, and it flew open. Seconds later his voice rang through. “Clear.”
Vic secured the rear entrance. “Clear.”
“Clear,” Brewer added only moments later, announcing the status of the upper floor.
“Damn. Look for clues and bag anything you find. I don’t want this son-of-a-bitch to fly off the grid with those kids.” She turned toward their parked van near the Aqueduct to see Hanna standing in the shadows. Harper closed her eyes and released a puff of air. Her first instinct spat out a reprimand, but seeing the fear etched on the girl’s face, she walked forward and wrapped an arm around her shoulder.
