"A thriller as tightly wound as its heroine...Hoag has created a winning central figure in Elena...bottom line: reat ride." - People

Ex-cop Elena Estes once worked for the narcotics division in Florida - until she took one risk too many. Her life shattered, she lives in a self-imposed exile where no one can reach her. But that's about to change when a twelve-year-old girl asks Elena to find her older sister. The wealthy Palm Beach horsey set into which Ein Seabright has disappeared is a long way from a cop's world...but it's even more dangerous. Elena will need all her street smarts to survive the shadow side of a glamorous sport. Here a killer will lead Estes down a twisted trail of decadence and deceit and murder. A race against time and evil. A race in which Estes is once again the dark horse, where more than just her own life is at stake...and no one is betting on her to win.

"This is her best to date...(A) tautly told thriller." - Minneapolis Star Tribune
