Too Soon — Rebecca A. Engel

When private detective Vince Cardonza asks Valerie Urniak Harris to consult on a case, she refuses to consider it without her husband Jacob's consent. After almost twenty-five years of marriage, Jacob has had enough of his wife putting her life in danger. Valerie is certain that her compassionate husband will withdraw his edict against her participating in any investigations once he knows a missing teenage girl is involved.

Valerie also couldn't refuse to help her former sister-in-law find her birth parents. There could be no danger in that.

But there were dangers in Valerie's life that she never anticipated. On the eve of the new millennium, she discovers a document that threatens to prove the last twenty-five years of her life were one long lie.

Valerie can't believe things can get worse… until they do.
