    Night's Landing
    by Carla Neggers

    In her gripping novels, New York Times bestselling author Carla Neggers combines action, intrigue, romance and adventure like no one else . . . Archaeologist Sarah Dunnemore is prepared for almost anything when she returns to her family home in Night's Landing, Tennessee . . .except the news that her twin brother, Rob, has just been seriously wounded in a sniper attack in Central Park. She rushes to New York to be with him, only to come up against no-nonsense Nate Winter, who was slightly wounded in the attack. In his work as a deputy U.S. marshal, Nate is the best, but he's willing to break the rules to track down his and Rob's would-be killer. Nate believes the official investigation is going in the wrong direction -- especially when he learns that Sarah is like a surrogate daughter and confidante to her family's famous Night's Landing neighbor - - the president of the United States. When Nate suspects that Sarah has held back crucial information, he follows her to Night's Landing. Because Nate will let nothing -- not his and Sarah's growing attraction for each other, not the mounting danger they face -- stand in the way of the truth. But in a place filled with betrayal, greed and long-held secrets, truth is guarded with a deadly vengeance.
