If you hid in plain sight, would he find you?
No.
Because he isn’t looking.
When Emma sees a face from her past at a friend’s wedding, she runs. It worked once before and besides, how would he find her?
But this time, he does. He always knew her location. He just stopped caring.
Rohan Andreyev is an actuary. Some actuaries sit in an office and calculate risk. Others hunt down the risk and eliminate it for a fee. It’s the sinister side of loss adjusting. It’s the part he likes most.
Emma is the risk he didn’t eliminate and when she stumbles across him by chance, it’s an invitation to right the wrong.
Emma is sucked into a life she once escaped, driven there by poverty and desperation. But the real threat isn’t just to her safety now. There’s something much more valuable at stake this time.
