I won't write another summary as it's been done beautifully already. I just wanted to recommend this book. I loved it. Five stars all the way! You really can't go wrong with Debra Webb.
Intrigue #801
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
Another fantastic edition to the Colby Agency series, this one is labeled: Colby Agency: Internal Affairs. The story picks up where Webb's Harlequin-published single-title Striking Distance (ISBN: 0-373-83557-4) left off. The Colby Agency realizes that their arch nemesis, Errol Leberman must have had an accomplice who is still a threat. Already in the midst of an internal affairs investigation to find out who leaked agency information to Leberman, Colby's latest recruit, an ex-cop named Heath Murphy who has been with the agency such a short time that he does not factor into the current investigation, is dispatched on his first assignment: locate and apprehend Leberman's longtime associate and veritable ghost, Stephen Howard. To do this, Murphy is ordered to use any means necessary, primarily the only link to Howard: his daughter Jayne. Unfortunately for Heath, Jayne is a trail guide and rescue worker in Aspen, Colorado's dangerous avalanche country. Can Heath face the ghosts of his (Cliffhanger-inspired?) past to keep up with the independent Jayne and keep her safe from a father who may want to rid himself of the one person who knows for certain he exists? And when his locate and apprehend mission turns into an order to execute this known terrorist and assassin, can the ex-cop bring himself to kill the only family of the woman he has come to...love? For a great start to the Colby Agency saga, read Webb's Safe By His Side (ISBN: 0-373-22583-0), Harlequin Intrigue #583. And be sure to grab her next Colby book, Harlequin Intrigue #807, Full Exposure, as you'll certainly want to pick it up as soon as you put this one down (ISBN: 0-373-22807-4).
