Description
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • She finds lost children—all the while trying to outrun the brutal emotions stemming from a tragedy in her past. Milla Edge is fueled by an obsession to fill the void in other people’s lives. Traveling to a small village in Mexico on a reliable tip, she begins to uncover the dire fate of countless children who have disappeared in the labyrinth of a sinister baby-smuggling ring. The key to nailing down the organization may rest with an elusive one-eyed man. As Milla’s search for him intensifies, the mission becomes more treacherous. For the ring is part of something far larger and more dangerous, reaching the highest echelons of power. Racing into peril, Milla suddenly finds herself the hunted—in the crosshairs of an invisible, lethal assassin who aims to silence her permanently. Praise for Cry No More “Linda Howard is a superbly original storyteller.”—Iris Johansen “Intense and darkly mesmerizing from beginning to end, this gut-wrenching roller coaster of a book is incredible! The bestselling Howard delivers first-class terror and suspense.”—Romantic Times “Linda Howard meshes hot sex, emotional impact, and gripping tension.”—Publishers Weekly (starred review)
