Book Description:
Count your blessings; they can be snatched away in an instant. It is a sentiment Milla Edge knows too well. With an astonishing blend of savvy, instinct, and passion, Milla displays an uncanny gift for finding lost children. When all seems helpless, desperate souls from across the country come to her for hope and results. Driven by an obsessive desire to fill the void in other people's lives, Milla throws herself into every case-all the while trying to outrun the brutal emotions stemming from a horrific tragedy in her past.

Traveling to a small village in Mexico on a reliable tip, Milla begins to uncover the dire fate of countless children who have disappeared over the years in the labyrinth of a sinister baby-smuggling ring. The key to nailing down the organization may rest with an elusive one-eyed man. To find him, Milla joins forces with James Diaz, a suspicious stranger known as the Tracker who conceals his own sinister agenda.

As the search intensifies, the mission becomes more treacherous. For the ring is part of something far larger and more dangerous, reaching the highest echelons of power and influence. Caught between growing passion and imminent peril, Milla suddenly finds herself the hunted-in the crosshairs of an invisible, lethal assassin who aims to silence her permanently.

Intense emotion . . . potent suspense . . . pounding action. Linda Howard weaves these elements into page-turning fiction. Cry No More is a seductive thriller of heartbreak and obsession that moves with a vengeance.

It's funny but I can recall the day I read this book and how devastated I felt when I finished it in the wee hours of the morning. I'm a huge fan of Linda Howard's books, but this one just shattered me. I think it's the best book she's ever written and the ending is incredible moving.

Milla Edge lives in Mexico, where her doctor husband, David, is posted. She has just given birth to her first child and is basking in a maternal glow when baby Justin is stolen literally out of her arms, with chilling efficiency. A decade later, Milla is divorced from David and has become the devoted head of an organization called Finders. Hunting down the cabals that carry out these crimes, she combs North America for kidnapped babies, including her own. Her sometimes reckless exploits put her in harm's way and also land her in the path of two very different powerful men. Wealthy businessman True Gallagher contributes generously to Finders and pursues Milla with every donation. The dangerous and elusive Diaz, a mercenary-or is he a government agent?-provides Milla with the name of Justin's kidnapper, and offers to accompany her on the dangerous journey to his headquarters. Both men have secret personal agendas.

I had a good time with this one - it was just what I was in the mood for over the weekend. It's definitely not the same old romance plot with the same old characters! And it's not just the main characters -- even the ex-husband is a nice guy for once! It might have made things a little more exciting if we hadn't gotten to see inside everyone's heads, but I can see arguments for both sides on that one. I can't help but wonder if the publisher didn't want to keep the read on the easier side and pushed for things to be a little more explained along the way....

Anyway, fun book, good story -- recommended for the romantic suspense crowd! I've always liked Linda Howard. She may be a little mainstream, but she got there 'cos she writes fun stuff!

Milla Edge finds lost children - a job she undertook after her own baby was snatched from her arms. The key is an elusive one eyed man. What part does the invisible lethal assassin play? As with all Linda Howard mysteries, this one is hard to put down.
