Afghanistan war Vet Diamond Lotte needs to find a new heart for her sister, Maddie, and she's running out of time. Maddie is on the critical list, and new hearts are expensive. Prohibitively so. Diamond has run out of options for obtaining the money when she discovers that someone is willing to pay top dollar for information on the whereabouts of the son of a New York billionaire who went missing in Washington, D.C.Unlike Diamond, Warner Hastings is not short on money, but like Diamond, he is short on time. His brother, Jasper, was kidnapped because he threatened to go public with some condemning evidence about a very powerful and influential senator. Without Diamond's help, Warner may never find his brother alive. But the problem with that is, Diamond's been hired by the very man out for Warner's blood.
