When her infant goddaughter is kidnapped, Mary knows the hunt she's been dreading has begun. In a lethal game of cat-and-mouse that will take her along the Cherokee Trail of Tears, Mary must save the child of the man she loves while she rips the secrets from the heart of a killer who could be mistaken for the very devil himself.

Sallie Bissell, fast distinguishing herself as the Patricia Cornwall of the Appalachian Mountains, delivers a tour de force of relentless suspense and heart-stopping menace that Rendezvous raves "will leave you breathless."
