He can’t leave the two of them alone, and when he offers the mother and daughter a safe place to stay, the fear in Sarah’s eyes is a dead giveaway that something isn’t as it seems, and his instincts warn him that there’s more to their story. In order for Mercy to protect them from whatever they’re running from, he needs to earn their trust. But the more time he spends with Sarah and daughter, the harder it’ll be to let them go. One by one the pieces click into place, and soon Mercy finds himself racing against time to figure out who the raven-haired beauty really is… and what she’s hiding.
