Hidden Agenda: Line of Duty

Line of Duty #2

by Maggie Price

To: Sergeant Carrie McCall

Subject: Regarding Reilly

Your assignment flouts two cardinal rules of the cop code: Never investigate your partner and never fall for your partner. You will do the first, plumbing Sergeant Lincoln Reilly's home and psyche for proof, even as you pretend to be lovers on a covert sting. Because despite an exemplary record, circumstantial evidence suggests that Reilly kills acquitted criminals as coldly as the worst offender.

Beware of the second.

Reilly's instincts have never failed. And with you, he appears to be operating on the most basic instincts between man and woman. Trust only your training...or stand to lose more than your cover.

Maggie Price turned to crime at the age of twenty-two. That's when she went to work at the Oklahoma City Police Department. As a civilian crime analyst, she evaluated suspects' methods of operation during the commission of robberies and sex crimes, and developed profiles on those suspects. During her tenure at OCPD, Maggie stood in lineups, snagged assignments to homicide task forces, established procedures for evidence submittal, even posed as the wife of an undercover officer in the investigation of a fortune teller.

Drawing on her twelve years experience in law enforcement, Maggie Price penned her debut novel, PRIME SUSPECT. One week after Silhouette Books acquired the novel of romance and intrigue, the Romance Writers of America awarded PRIME SUSPECT its prestigious Golden Heart Award for Best Romantic Suspense.
