Silent Mist

Delaney Cross came to Widow's Point to disappear. Ex-Army interpreter, deaf since an IED strike outside Mosul, she wanted a summer of nothing but the strait and silence — not to watch two men whisper a name at the marina and realize she'd read their lips clean.

The name they said was Duncan MacRae.

Sheriff's deputy Beck Kincaid buried his uncle three months ago. When Delaney tells him what she saw, he knows two things instantly: someone is still cleaning up whatever Duncan uncovered, and Delaney is now on their list.

She can outshoot half his old Marine Recon team, she doesn't want his help, and she isn't going to get a say in the matter — because Beck Kincaid has never once let a smart-mouthed woman with a target on her back face a killer alone.

The trafficking ring using Widow's Point docks is bigger than either of them realized. And it goes through the same men who put a bullet in Duncan MacRae.
