The Girl with Emerald Eyes (Paperback)

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. THE GIRL WITH EMERALD EYES is a descent into the dark and mysterious world of the U.S. Marshals Service witness protection program. Out for a pre-dawn run along the beach, Michael Riley stumbles upon a young woman struggling for her life in the ocean just offshore. Rescuing her from almost certain death he carries her nearly lifeless body back to his beach house. After recuperating from her ordeal the woman insists on setting off on her own, leaving Riley to ponder the mysterious circumstances that nearly took her life. Five weeks later the woman's decomposing body is discovered in an abandoned building and Riley suddenly becomes the prime suspect in her murder. Forced to prove his innocence or face a lifetime in prison, Riley begins digging into the young woman's past, but some secrets are better left undisturbed. Who she was, and why she ran from the person who had just saved her life are the difficult questions Riley must answer before he can make sense of her tragic death. But powerful forces allied against him insist the dead woman remain anonymous. With his investigation drawing the attention of both the U. S. Marshal's Service and assassins from a powerful drug cartel, it is all Riley can do to stay one step ahead of them. And the closer he comes to unraveling the mysterious woman's past the more he realizes things are not as they first appeared. With time running out, Riley is forced to take risks that threaten to expose a vast government conspiracy. But discovering the truth presents him with a terrifying choice; keep what he has learned secret, or risk sacrificing the lives of those closest to him. This item is printed on demand.
