Gone without warning…
NCIS
agent Derrick Gunn is called to a crime scene where a U.S. Navy petty
officer is found dead. Her death is odd, but it appears nothing is
missing until Emma St. John, the woman’s sister shows up and alerts
Derrick to the fact that her nephew is gone. Alarmed for the child’s
safety, he insists that Emma leave the case up to NCIS, but she
stubbornly defies him. She follows her own path, and she doesn’t want to
listen to him. In the past that led to disaster and he won’t work with
someone who doesn’t follow his lead, no matter how many sparks fly off
from their friction.
Private Investigator Emma St. John refuses
to take no for an answer and joins Derrick in the search for her
nephew—an investigation that leads them into Mexico to come up against a
dangerous drug cartel boss who may have taken the baby for his own
personal reasons. Derrick is exactly the kind of man that she’s had to
fight against all her life. The know-it-all bossy alpha male. One who
thinks he needs to take control of everything. She’s not going to kowtow
to him or his official badge when her nephew’s life hangs in the
balance. She’d rather go it alone, but they join forces and race against
the clock to save her nephew from a terrible fate.
