What started out as a cliché plot twist turned into a riveting and suspense-filled read. Lucy's boyfriend, Sean Rogan, is visited by an ex-girlfriend with a secret: she has a twelve-year-old son, and he's Sean's. Sean heads to Mexico to rescue the son he's never met, while pulling in his family – both blood and chosen – to help in the mission. At the same time, Lucy embarks on one of the hardest cases of her career. Numerous young women have been sighted and most of them pregnant. Questions about human trafficking, the sex trade, and the selling of babies on the black market arise once one of the girls escapes and leaves her newborn below a statue at the local church. Lucy, partnering with the man who originally trained her, Special Agent Noah Armstrong from D.C. who is temporarily the SSA in San Antonio, set off to discover the truth and to find the missing girls. What no one expects is for Lucy and Sean's cases to overlap – and it's not until the very end that the full truth comes out.
