The Last Warrior
Tribal police investigator Joe Youngblood had the heart of an ancient warrior and the raw beauty of the Navajo Nations land he called home. And to photojournalist Delaney Carson, he was more of a threat than the flashback-induced nightmares of Iraqi gunfire and dying colleagues that had ruled her life for the past two years—or the unknown assailant who wanted to silence her. Because Joe Youngblood made her believe in tomorrow. And forever. Most frightening of all, he made her believe in love.

SOMETIMES EVIL LINGERS SO CLOSE, YOU CAN FEEL IT.... Seattle police sketch artist Maggie Barnes has an extraordinary gift. She listens as traumatized crime victims describe their ordeals -- and then uses those horrifying recollections to draw dead-on sketches of the assailants.
