“I’m an avid reader of mystery thrillers and have been for over 40 years. Love to follow Eve, Duncan, Kay Scarpetta, Alex Cross, Lincoln Rhyme, Kinsey Milhone…just to name a few and just recently stumbled across my favorite new character, Secret Service Agent Melanie Ward. Read Living Lies (#1 in series) and Second Chance (#2) back to back and couldn’t put them down.” ~ Istout, Amazon Review

Lost with nowhere else to go, Melanie crashes and burns on her parents’ old plaid couch. This is not your typical spy story.
