Publisher Description
The Montana Hamiltons by New York Times bestselling author B.J. Daniels
He's determined to uncover the truth behind a decades-old disappearance — even if it kills him
When hotshot reporter Max Malone gets a rare shot of Buckmaster Hamilton with a blonde woman near Beartooth, Montana, he chases down one of the senator's daughters to verify that the woman is Hamilton's supposedly long-dead first wife. But Kat Hamilton won't give him the time of day, let alone any information about her mother.
Kat can just tell that with his tousled blond hair, sexy stubble and an old straw cowboy hat topping off his long, lean frame, Max isn't used to female sources denying him anything. But when her own life is put in jeopardy, it's Max who comes to her rescue. Seems someone is prepared to kill to keep the past in the past. Kat can't deny she needs Max to find out what happened to her mother, but will getting closer and closer to each other lead them to the truth...or to danger?
“Daniels returns to Beartooth, Montana, with a fast-paced thriller set in the remnants of a once-thriving mining town...leading to a chilling climax.” — Publishers Weekly on Mercy
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Daniels improves on her previous outing, Lone Rider, in this solid third Montana Hamiltons contemporary. Journalists camp out at the Hamilton ranch in Beartooth, Mont., day and night in the hopes of catching a glimpse of presidential candidate and senator Buckmaster Hamilton's amnesiac ex-wife, Sarah, who was missing for years and declared dead. Freelance reporter Max Malone wants the story, and he approaches Kat, Sen. Hamilton's daughter. She reluctantly agrees to help him investigate her mother's disappearance when it becomes clear that outside forces are targeting both of them in order to bury the truth. Could Kat's mom be a member of an antigovernment terrorist group from the late 1970s, or is she an innocent victim who was used by people she thought were friends? Daniels, thankfully and significantly, advances the conspiracy story first introduced in Wild Horses and allows Max and Kat enough time to work together to make their personal connection and romance believable.
