Teague McMurtry is a loyal friend. So when Aileen calls asking him to look for their friend, Nadeya, he can't say no. Nadeya taught him everything he knows about survival. She is dangerous and damaged, having seen her fiancé murdered. She's spent the last few years tracking down the men who killed him, seeking justice—or, at least, vengeance. When a body turns up on the beach, identical to a man Nadeya said she was looking for, suspicion targets her.
