For twenty-years Sam Steele lived with a lie gnawing at his conscience — for twenty-years his only child believed her mother was dead. Without warning his ex-wife springs from the ashes of the past and reaches out to him in his capacity as a veteran Immigration Custom Enforcement agent.
When Sam’s ex dumps a father’s living nightmare into his lap, he must choose between doing his duty as a law enforcer and jeopardizing his cherished relationship with his daughter. Circumstances beyond his control leave him no choice. Before he can seek forgiveness, TERRI ANNE disappears. Sam neglects his duties as an ICE agent and becomes obsessed in finding her. In the wake of his search he unravels a trail of murder, illegal Green Card marriages, and unveils a jihadist’s plot to launch a terror attack on American soil.
INTO THE DEVIL’S DEN – SNARED BY THEIR OWN LIES weaves a tangled tale of suspense, murder, and treachery. Each twisted circumstance is triggered by that one well-intended lie Sam Steele told his child — a lie that mushrooms into several more falsehoods and leaves multiple lives dangling by a single thread. The daunting task of facing the truth and the race against time pushes ICE agent Sam Steele’s integrity to the limit.
Excerpt
Rashid was an imbecile. Thanks to her, he had his green card, an unlimited amount of luxury and financial security. Everything a person desired. All she demanded in return was sensual pleasure and her freedom to go and do as she pleased. But like most of the male species, he couldn’t keep it in his pants and took advantage of her every opportunity. If he’d just followed her rules, he could’ve been a rich man. Nobody cheats on Sylvia Temple and gets away with it.
A motor roared to life. Sylvia jumped, choked back a scream. It was only a dinghy putting toward a sailboat anchored in the middle of the lagoon. For Christ sake, woman, ditch the paranoia, she chastised herself. You’re better than that. Sylvia took a deep breath, let the air slowly slide through her lips. Who could blame her with everything that had been happening the last several months?
Life had been near perfect until that cousin of Rashid’s showed up a couple years ago. Rashid changed, became more secretive, and constantly entertained creepy dark figures with shifty eyes. They talked mumbo jumbo, made her feel like an intruder in her own home. Lately, even the smallest sound made her jump; she constantly checked behind her, feared someone, something lurked in the shadows. A shiver pancaked against her spine. Maybe her suspicions were having more of an effect on her than she had realized.
How many times had she picked up the phone and dialed Carter Banks. After all, if anyone knew something suspicious was going on with Rashid and Jaali, he should. But every time she dialed the Senator’s number, a nagging intrusion clawed at her stomach and made her disconnect the call.
