The other prime suspect is Carr Sullivan, the man who owns the ranch where the murders occurred. Carr was once one of the wealthiest businessmen in Dallas and has a shady past a mile long. But it appears he’s turned his life around. Can Bella trust him, or is he just trying to cover his tracks?
As Bella probes deeper into the case, threats on her own life convince her the killer is someone she knows. But it soon becomes clear he’s not working alone, and she’ll need to face the past she’s tried so desperately to forget in order to solve the case and prevent more murders.

FBI Agent Bella Jordan is sent to the stark west Texas of her unhappy childhood when three men turn up dead on the High Butte Ranch belonging to Carr Sullivan. Former high-roller Carr is a prime suspect along with Brandt Richardson, a serial killer with whom Bella has a past. The three victims were searching for a legendary lost Spanish treasure, the same lost treasure that caused Bellas unhappy adolescence, as her father was so obsessed with it, he was willing to sell her, at age 15, to Richardson. Bella finds herself believing in Carr, who experienced a conversion when his fianc'e died of a drug overdose five years earlier. Now the murders on his property have imperiled his dream of creating a home for troubled boys. As Bella defies FBI procedures in investigating the crime, the death toll mounts, and she begins to fall for Carr. The third romantic-suspense thriller in Mills Call of Duty series will appeal to readers who like a stout dose of Christianity and prayer along with the action.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2010, American Library Association.)
