This was my first Dee Henderson novel and I did enjoy it. Luke Granger finds an eyewitness to a multiple murder in the mall jewelry store and the police are able to arrest and convict the guy. Luke was concerned, however, when his eyewitness just disappeared into thin air. He does find her and she begs him to let her go. She is a star witness for the FBI prosecution of gang-like fraud, harassment, murder, theft, etc. She has been on the run for nearly 10 years. Three years later, two sisters become multi-millionaires when their father (who was unknown to them) died and left them 30 million dollars each. Suddenly, life for them gets complicated and dangerous. Luke, Marsh and Connor (two homicide detectives) work together to make the sisters safe. Luke's mystery woman appears back in town to protect her two sisters and it is a perilous race against time who gets whom first. Great suspense and nice love stories. The characters were a little bit too "nice" though; too perfect. This is a Christian novelist and she does a great job keeping you in suspense and relating the dangers and violence but all of the main characters could not possibly be that wonderful!
