After a nine-year absence, the fiercely resourceful Native
American guide Jane Whitefield is back, in the latest superb
thriller by award-winning author Thomas Perry. For more than a
decade, Jane pursued her unusual profession: "I'm a guide . . . I
show people how to go from places where somebody is trying to kill
them to other places where nobody is." Then she promised her
husband she would never work again, and settled in to live a happy,
quiet life as Jane McKinnon, the wife of a surgeon in Amherst, New
York. But when a bomb goes off in the middle of a hospital
fundraiser, Jane finds herself face to face with the cause of the
explosion: a young pregnant girl who has been tracked across the
country by a team of hired hunters. That night, regardless of what
she wants or the vow she's made to her husband, Jane must come back
to transform one more victim into a runner. And her quest for
safety sets in motion a mission that will be a rescue operation--or
a chance for revenge.
