Hollow Outlier

RCMP officer and SAR tech Quinton Taylor knows how quickly the wilderness can erase a trail, but his sister’s disappearance leaves him with only a high-tech biometric watch and the certainty that the forest is watching him.

When an ambush nearly kills him, the armed woman standing over him is Scout Lennox, the woman he mourned at a memorial three months after they had finally found their way back to one another.

She is alive and operating in the shadows of a war he never knew existed, determined to keep him breathing long enough to find his sister.

The watch in his hand is a death sentence, sending his sister’s vitals while she is driven through a lethal selection process that only the outliers survive.

Saving her depends on trusting the ghost he never stopped missing, just as stopping the killer depends on Scout letting him near enough to see the woman she has become.

The farther they push, the more dangerous the truth grows, and the harder it becomes to stay inside the law or keep their hands off each other.
