Without Mercy — Alicia Dean

How far will a mother go to protect her child? When an apparently random bank robbery turns out to be a sinister plan, single mother China Beckett is thrust into a nightmare. A group of mercenaries take over her life, threatening her young daughter and everyone they love. Each time China makes a mistake, someone dies. She'll fight to the last breath to protect her child, but that might not be enough. As the lives of China's loved ones are jeopardized, she must take action, although she has no idea where to turn -- and time is running out. But then, a startling truth is revealed and China discovers that the only person who can save them might be a ghost from the past. *** Warning: Explicit language and graphic violence ***
