Serenity Engulfed — Craig A. Hart

Familiar enemies resurface in this blazing new thriller that finds Shelby racing against time to save the most important person in his life: his daughter. When Shelby Alexander's daughter, Leslie, fails to show up at his cabin for a planned visit to northern Michigan, he's concerned, but convinces himself she's running late. When her car is found abandoned by the side of the road, he fears the worst. When her cellphone appears on his porch, he knows something terrible has happened--and that he's to blame. Enlisting the help of the new county sheriff, Shelby launches a search for Leslie--all the while dealing with a prostitute in fear for her life, a sexy writer interested in writing his life story, and some long-banished ghosts of his own past.
