Bait - Softcover

She's a cop's widow, a prematurely retired officer, and an ex-cop's partner in a private security firm. Even without her badge, Meg Gillis can't get away from the force. Still, she practices a see-no-evil policy when it comes to the seedy side jobs her partner Mike sometimes picks up. Now, though, she wishes she'd opened her eyes.

Mike has mysteriously disappeared, there's blood in her old Subaru, and she's on the cops' Special Tactics Unit short list of suspects. Caught up in old secrets and bad blood, Meg's only out is to dangle herself as a tasty morsel for some crooked cops in a deadly setup--under the protection of an intense, sexually magnetic cop who could be her savior . . . or her downfall.

A talented new writer who combines tense excitement with insider authenticity, C. J. Songer introduces a tough, vulnerable sleuth in a powerful, sexy thriller that will leave readers clamoring for more.
