"E xciting romantic thriller"
An on the job injury probably means the end of field work
for CIA Agent Jake Halsey. Still he is highly regarded so
no final decision has been made as his superior wants to
allow Jake time to heal before they reassess. Jake goes to Salt Lake City to recover, but is irate that
he must recuperate when his stepmother is missing and
probably in deep trouble. To pass time he works as a
genealogist. Attorney Maggie McFarland, CEO of the
Kathryn McFarland National Foundation that has recovered
thousands of missing children, hires Jake to track her
younger sister Kathryn, abducted over two decades ago as
an infant. Jake feels in his element with the only new
ingredient being that he is falling in love with his
client who reciprocates though she feels guilty by doing
so when her now adult sibling remains lost. This exciting romantic thriller highlights the impact even
years after of an abduction of a loved Maggie has more
than just dedicated her eing to the memory of the
incident as she attempts to find her sister; she gave up
her own life until Jake enters the scene. The story line
is a fabulous investigative romance starring two
individuals with scars that have not healed. THE
DAUGHTER'S RETURN is Rebecca Winters at her best, which
mean contemporary readers will want to peruse this one
sitting thriller. Harriet Klausner
