A moonlight sail. A sniper on the shore. A terrorist financier determined to kill Jacob and all he holds dear.
Interpol Special Agent Jacob Coulter and his fiancée Riley Williams set out on a moonlight sail, but a sniper turns their idyllic Austrin vacation into a deadly nightmare.
On temporary assignment to the Vienna Interpol office, Jacob must apprehend a notorious terrorist financier and uncover his operations in Austria. But the financier is determined to destroy all Jacob holds dear. And that includes his kid sister and his fiancée, Riley Williams.
Opera singer Riley Williams is tired of dodging terrorist attempts on her life. When she insists on helping Jacob catch the financier and his henchmen, she gets into more trouble than she bargained for.
But the financier’s tentacles of evil reach far deeper into the Austrian economy than Jacob and Riley suspected. What they uncover appalls them. The clock is ticking. Can Jacob find them before it’s too late?
Book Excerpt

Water gurgled into the dinghy, seeped inside his nylon slacks, sloshed around his bottom athletic shoe. Numbness crept up his ankle.

“Danke.” She disconnected the call. Taut lines etched her mouth. “They’re on the way.”
Craaack. Another bullet pierced the boat near the joint of the stern.
Gasping, Riles yanked her knees to her chest.
In seconds a chilly gusher saturated his hip. Breath lodged in his throat.
Another hit below the waterline. God had protected them so far. But one more bullet between the last two, and the police would carry them out in body bags.
