No Duress — Miriam Borgenicht

WHEN THE BOUGH BREAKS .. .

A tragedy turns into a living nightmare when health counselor Linda Stewart's adopted infant daughter is legally reclaimed by the baby's natural teenage mother -- and both are found dead two days later.

Linda's agonizing grief is channeled into a burning determination to solve these senseless murders. While suspicions of drug involvement might explain the sudden fortune the young mother had acquired, Linda's subtle probing takes a seedy turn into black-market adoptions.

As she uncovers a network as appalling as it is profitable, an attempt on her own life proves Linda's hitting too close to home...and to a shocking turn of events as sinister as they are compelling.
