Find your enemy. Before he finds you . . .
Nora Watts is used to being hunted. Since she rescued her biological daughter, Bonnie, two years ago, from the criminal gang that had kidnapped her, Nora's been targeted by the ruthless Dao. He wants revenge, and he will use whatever he can to get to Nora - including Bonnie.
So, Nora has no choice: the hunted must become the hunter.
But as she chases after Dao, from the snow-laden streets of Vancouver to the sun-bleached beaches in Indonesia, she knows that it's only a matter of time before they come face to face - and this time, only one of them can walk away.
It's a mother's job to keep her child safe, at all costs, so can Nora find Dao and stop him - before it's too late?

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
A complicated backstory weighs down Canadian author Kamal's tiresome third Nora Watts novel (after 2018's It All Falls Down). Nora's 17-year-old daughter, Bonnie, believes she's being followed. Meanwhile, Nora learns that, unbeknownst to her, she barely escaped being killed during her recent stay in Detroit. Nora puts the two incidents together and concludes that her arch nemesis, Dao, a man of great wealth with criminal contacts, is out to get her; her only hope is to get to him first. She's aided by her loyal friends and her uncanny knack of knowing when people are lying to her. Kamal recaps the first two books in an effort to explain why Nora and Bonnie are being targeted, but the frequent pauses for exposition stop the narrative flow. That the troubled Nora has relatability issues she prefers the company of her dog to that of most people is another minus. Those who value humor or wit in their mysteries will have to look elsewhere.
