From the Publisher

Gideon Blake, artist and animal behaviorist, is used to dealing with distressed and unpredictable animals. But on one cold February night, he’s faced with the challenge of his life. Abducted from his home, handcuffed and blindfolded, Gideon is inexplicably forced by his violent captors to catch a dangerous, highly–strung stallion. Though severely hindered by the blindfold, and fearing certain death, he has no choice but to comply. Bruised and bewildered by the events of that illfated night, Gideon ignores his abductor’s threats to stay silent and resolves to find out who was behind this sadistic, seemingly irrational act. But a chance encounter leads to a shocking discovery— and the realization that danger lies very close to home. The second stunning thriller from the author of Cut Throat.
