Unless Covert Operatives shield her
Prosecutor and single mom Melinda Steele thought her nightmare ended when her abusive husband died, but now someone wants her dead by Christmas.

And his mission shifts from difficult to almost impossible when Melinda reveals who she suspects is really after her.
