On a rainy Seattle night, beautiful and vivacious local author Mary McKenzie is celebrating her latest triumph of a best-selling book with friends and family at a local bar, when a phone call sends her into the alley to a destiny with a man who brutally changes her life forever.
As Mary returns to her life in the public eye, she begins a fast-paced race to discover who is trying to make a mess of her life.
Suffering panic attacks that have controlled her since the attack, Mary begins to try to continue her life. Aided by her loving and protective brother and Danish blond goddess Hege, her head of security, Mary is better protected than the President.
The cast of characters from her past and present includes the intelligent and sensual FBI Profiler, Michael Gryffin, who causes Mary to take a different kind of fall.
From the San Juan Islands to beautiful Pike Place Market, they are pursued by a mystery man who threatens her very life. When Mary finally thinks she is safe, the panic is just beginning.
