The adrenaline-fueled second installment of Harris's U.S. Marshals series (after Escape) centers on a series of Seattle bank robberies. It's deputy U.S. marshal Madison James's first day back at work after recovering from being shot, and she's assigned a case with her partner Jonas Quinn to investigate a group of bank robbers. The only clues they have are a partial fingerprint and eyewitness accounts. When Madison and Jonas respond to a bank robbery in progress, the suspects create a diversion and lose themselves in a crowd of bank hostages. But Madison and Jonas pick up their trail and follow the suspects from one hostage situation to another as they keep miraculously slipping away. When someone breaks into Madison's home, she is thrust back into the trauma of being shot and the unsolved murder of her husband. As Madison and Jonas pursue the suspects, they admit their growing attraction to each other and must decide whether to risk their partnership for the chance of love. While faith elements are light, this whirlwind fast-paced chase will please fans of Terri Blackstock. (July)

Three months ago, U.S. Marshal Madison James was shot in her own home and she still has no idea who was behind it, but she does know that it is somehow connected to the murder of her husband five years ago. On her first day back to work, Madison and her partner, Jonas Quinn, are assigned to handle a bank robbery in downtown Seattle; the situation escalates quickly when a hostage is shot. The second book in Harris' U.S. Marshals series, following The Escape (2020) takes readers on a wild ride, chasing down a group of bank robbers that seems to be always one step ahead, having seemingly planned for every possible contingency. Both Madison and Jonas are dealing with unresolved issues from their past relationships. The attraction between them is clear to everyone around them, but is it worth the risk to their professional partnership? Matters of faith take a back seat to suspense, and readers who like to be kept on the edge of their seats will eagerly anticipate the next installment.
