It begins with a taut prologue introducing federal marshal Roland Larson and his protected witrness, Hope Stevens, whose testimony will send the Romero crime family to jail if she ever makes it to court. When Hope walks away from the witness protection program, she takes Larson's heart with her; he hesitates just long enough to regret it; and spends the next six years searching for her. Then she surfaces again in connection with the disappearance of another protected witness, a computer expert who holds the safety of everyone in the program in the top secret software program he developed. Noone wants access to that program more than the Romero family, and Hope Stevens is the first and most important target of their wrath. As a member of the elite Fugitive Apprehension Task Force, Larson races the clock to find the man whose knowledge threatens the life of the woman he still loves&#133;and the child he never knew he had. A heart-pounding thriller that's impossible to put down, this is Pearson's best to date. <I>--Jane Adams</I> 1299118 2005 Cut and Run total:127|5:16|4:44|3:58|2:8|1:1| 127 447 188 12 5 0 false false Tue May 19 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Wed Apr 22 01:59:46 -0700 2009 Tue May 19 17:57:36 -0700 2009 more...]]> 5 0 false false Fri Oct 09 13:52:40 -0700 2009 Fri Oct 09 13:53:29 -0700 2009 3 0 false false Sun Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2006 Sat Sep 19 17:53:10 -0700 2009 Sat Sep 19 17:54:46 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Sun Nov 01 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Mon Sep 28 00:04:37 -0700 2009 Mon Sep 28 00:05:41 -0700 2009 4 1 false false Sat Mar 21 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Sat Apr 12 16:24:43 -0700 2008 Mon Mar 23 06:52:58 -0700 2009 more...]]> 3 0 false false Fri Jun 06 12:08:02 -0700 2008 Fri Jun 06 12:11:51 -0700 2008 more...]]> 4 0 false true Sun Oct 04 21:04:41 -0700 2009 Fri Sep 18 18:22:05 -0700 2009 Sun Oct 04 21:04:41 -0700 2009 2 0 false false Sat Apr 26 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Sun May 04 06:50:08 -0700 2008 Sun May 04 06:50:08 -0700 2008 4 0 false false Thu Jun 12 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Tue Jun 10 23:58:02 -0700 2008 Thu Jun 12 21:00:51 -0700 2008 4 0 false false Wed Aug 13 17:02:05 -0700 2008 Wed Aug 13 17:02:29 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Sat Aug 16 06:35:11 -0700 2008 Sat Aug 16 06:35:11 -0700 2008 5 0 false false Tue Jul 15 04:27:44 -0700 2008 Sat Jul 12 09:38:09 -0700 2008 Tue Jul 15 04:27:44 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Fri Nov 20 16:15:10 -0800 2009 Fri Nov 20 16:15:10 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Fri Nov 20 14:08:57 -0800 2009 Fri Nov 20 14:08:57 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Thu Nov 12 21:38:13 -0800 2009 Thu Nov 12 21:38:13 -0800 2009 4 0 false false Sun Jun 01 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Tue Nov 10 07:33:23 -0800 2009 Tue Nov 10 07:33:33 -0800 2009 5 0 false false Mon Jun 01 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Mon Nov 09 13:07:10 -0800 2009 Mon Nov 09 13:07:55 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Sun Nov 08 21:06:27 -0800 2009 Sun Nov 08 21:06:27 -0800 2009 4 0 false false Mon Nov 09 22:40:58 -0800 2009 Sat Oct 31 22:17:38 -0700 2009 Mon Nov 09 22:40:58 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Sat Oct 31 02:53:27 -0700 2009 Sat Oct 31 02:53:27 -0700 2009 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=202747
